Wrenched in Torment: The Unusual Holocaust Memorial at San Francisco's Palace

Sitting atop a grand hill that overlooks the shimmering waters of the Golden Gate, an unusual sight catches the eye in San Francisco's Lincoln Park. Eleven bodies, locked in a twisted expression of agony, bake under the Californian sun. This isn't the picture-perfect postcard shot that one expects to find in the bustling city of San Francisco, but in the hallowed halls of a world-class art museum, it starts to make a quirky sort of sense. The California Palace of the Legion of Honor isn't typically a spot that bears the heavy weight of the Holocaust, but this unconventional memorial packs its own punch.
