I never expected that I would stumble upon anything like the The End of Revolution art piece. A stained glass AK-47 rifle gun, this work features a juxtaposition of violent and religious connotations.
Created by deviantART user shanti1971, The End of Revolution art piece seems to be advocating an end to war, violence and maybe even hate. Considering that there is a poppy sticking out of the end of this stunning and unique artwork, I think that is a safe guess. The poppy "is a traditional symbol of remembrance for the war dead, especially those of World War I, in the UK and much of the Commonwealth," as Neatorama so succinctly puts it.
Brave and bold, The End of Revolution definitely sends a strong message.
