Upstairs at the St Mungo Museum of Religious Life and Art, near the Glasgow Cathedral,is a photographic exhibition of images of the many war memorials relating to World War I in the city.
The framed photographs with commentaries are of public memorials as well as memorials in churches, educational buildings and places of work.
Among the photographs are replicas of stained glass windows - memorials to those who served in the different services.
A review in HeraldScotland 23 August 2014 provides a description of the exhibition. The exhibition themes include Fallen Comrades, Places of Learning, Faith in Action, From Office and
Factory Floor, Local Heroes, Leisure and Pleasure and For King and
Empire.
This simply presented exhibition provided a moving representation of the number and variety of memorials within the city.
