Royal Canadian Navy Monument, War memorial in Richmond Landing, Canada.
The Royal Canadian Navy Monument features a white sail-like structure with a golden sphere, black granite fouled anchor, and circular amphitheater facing the Ottawa River.
Inaugurated on May 3, 2012, this monument emerged from a 2009 design competition to commemorate the centennial of the Royal Canadian Navy.
The monument incorporates naval colors of white, black, and gold throughout its design elements to represent the traditions of maritime service.
Located at the tip of Richmond Landing near Victoria Island, the memorial includes engraved text in both English and French languages.
The central marble structure transforms its appearance depending on viewing angle, suggesting different naval forms from sails to ship hulls to icebergs.
