We bet just about anybody who lives in South Carolina, as well as many visitors, have seen this curious orange archway. But where is it? Send your guess to feedback@statehousereport.com. And don’t forget to include your name and the town in which you live.
Our previous Mystery Photo
Our Oct. 30 photo, “Bronze sculpture,” is called “Alone with Memories” and is located in the Florence Veterans Park in Florence. Thanks to Barry Wingard for sharing the photograph.
Congratulations to these sleuths for identifying the photo: Allan Peel of San Antonio, Texas; George Graf of Palmyra, Va.; and Will Bradley of Las Vegas, Nevada. First week in a while that no South Carolina residents guessed something in South Carolina. Hmmm.
Peel shared more on the sculpture: “The monument was sculpted by Alex Palkovich and was donated to the Florence Veterans Park on Veterans Day in 2016 in honor of all those who have been presented with a folded flag in memory of a loved one who never returned from war. The sculptor created the piece in memory of his parents, Fannie and Marcus Palkovich, both of whom were survivors of the concentration camps of Auschwitz and Mauthausen and who were liberated by the U.S. Army and Allied Armed Forces during World War II.”
Send us a mystery: If you have a photo that you believe will stump readers, send it along (but make sure to tell us what it is because it may stump us too!) Send to: feedback@statehousereport.com and mark it as a photo submission. Thanks.
We Can Do Better, South Carolina!
