The last mystery was recognized by several people, including Stew Ogilvie of Lawrenceville, who told us that it was Titanica, a sculpture by Rowan Gillespie, located in front of Titanic Belfast, a museum located in Belfast, Ireland.” The photograph came from Clair Daniels of Black Mountain, N.C., vis Susan McBrayer of Sugar Hill.
Also recognizing was Jay Altman, Columbia, S.C.; George Graf, Palmyra, Va.; Rick Krause, Lilburn; John Titus, Peachtree Corners; and Allan Peel of San Antonio, Tex., who wrote: “Titanica is a bronze sculpture that depicts a female diver in mid-air. Created by Dublin-born sculptor Rowan Gillespie (1953 – present), it is a life-sized, three-quarter ton bronze sculpture that is mounted on top of a slender base. Intended to represent “hope and positivity”, the sculpture’s shape takes its inspirational design from a female ship figurehead that was traditionally mounted on the prows of large sailing ships. The Titanica sits in front of the Titanic Belfast, a museum and visitor attraction that was built to memorialize Belfast’s maritime heritage that was opened on March 31, 2012, almost 100-years after the tragic night of April 15, 1912 when the Titanic sank on its maiden voyage”.
