Opening of Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red at the Tower of London

The sea of poppies around the Tower of London at the opening of the Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red artwork by Paul Cummins. 888, 246 ceramic poppies, each poppy representing a British or Colonial military fatality during the war, will fill the moat by November 11th. For the opening, battlefield images were projected onto the central tower while Tim Pigott-Smith read out names of the fallen during a 21 gun salute. The evening ended with the playing of the last post. Silhouettes projected onto the tower were by wartime silhouette artist Captain H.L. Oakley and were supplied from the wartime editions of the Illustrated London News by Mary Evans Picture Library. Poppies can be purchased from the Tower of London atpoppies.hrp.org.uk/buy-a-poppy/
