Inspired by the story of Gabriel and Evangeline, this painting depicts the heartbreaking separation of loved ones during war. It symbolizes the suffering of Acadians in 1755, when families were torn apart, villages were burnt, and people were separated from their families as they were deported to distant lands, often never to reunite.

"War is neither glamorous, nor attractive. It is monstrous. Its very nature is of tragedy and suffering." - Dalai Lama
Wars are fought because of the political agenda of those who hold the reins of power. The destruction, devastation, loss of human life and suffering are the consequences that innocent people and their families suffer.
History repeats itself. As human beings we have been fighting for centuries and yet we have not changed our ways.
This painting takes you back to the time when France and England were at war with each other. The effect of this war spread to wherever their colonies were.
In this painting you see the ghost of Evangeline looking at the departing ship with her soul mate, Gabriel. In the distance the ravaging fires are burning her village.
Evangeline and Gabriel's story has become a symbol of the suffering of the Acadians during the deportation of 1755.
