War memorial outside Waterfront Station
Angel of Victory的点评
点评：We noticed this weathered bronze sculpture in front of Waterfront Station as we were walking towards Canada Place from Gastown Steam Clock. We stopped to read the inscription on the pedestal and learned that it is a war memorial erected in honour of the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) workers who perished during World War I. The statue depicts an angel carrying a fallen soldier to heaven.
There was no mention of the sculpture's name on the pedestal so I looked it up online and read that it is called Angel of Victory (also Winged Victory) by Montreal sculptor Coeur de Lion McCarthy and is one of three identical statues commissioned by CPR. The other two are in Montreal and Winnipeg. Originally, the angel was holding a full wreath in her left hand. Wreath got broken at some point.
Most people just hurry along the sidewalk where this sculpture is installed. Not the best location for a war memorial but I understand it has been outside Waterfront Station since 1922. Do pause and gaze at the Angel of Victory and remember those who answered the call of duty and never came home.

翻译：从盖斯镇蒸汽钟走向加拿大广场的路上，我们注意到海滨车站前矗立着一座饱经风霜的青铜雕塑。我们停下来阅读底座上的铭文，得知这是一座战争纪念碑，是为了纪念在第一次世界大战中牺牲的加拿大太平洋铁路（CPR）工人而建。雕像描绘了一位天使将一位阵亡的士兵带往天堂的场景。
底座上没有标明雕塑的名字，所以我上网查了一下，得知它名为“胜利天使”（也称“带翼的胜利”），由蒙特利尔雕塑家科德·麦卡锡创作，是加拿大太平洋铁路委托制作的三座同款雕像之一。另外两座分别位于蒙特利尔和温尼伯。最初，天使的左手拿着一个完整的花环，但花环不知何时损坏了。
大多数人只是匆匆走过这座雕塑所在的人行道。这里并非设立战争纪念碑的最佳地点，但我了解到它自 1922 年以来就一直矗立在海滨车站外。请驻足凝视胜利天使雕像，缅怀那些响应号召却再也没能回家的英烈。
