Sunrise Reflections in the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall
The Vietnam Veterans Memorial is actually made up of three parts: the wall, as well as The Three Soldiers statue and the Vietnam Women's Memorial. A national competition was held to choose the wall's design; the eventual winner was Maya Lin. The design proved very controversial because of its unconventional nature. However, (and this is me speaking!) I think over time appreciation is grown and it feels quite fitting of such a solemn commemoration.
