A striking green-tinted glass sculpture, composed of stacked and layered panes, stands prominently outdoors under a clear blue sky. The layers of glass exhibit a wavy texture, particularly in the upper sections, giving the appearance of flowing water or ice. The sun's rays cause bright reflections and flares on the glass, indicating bright daylight, likely early morning or late afternoon, as the sun appears low. The sculpture serves as a memorial, with a white informational plaque placed at its base. Dried or artificial flowers in shades of pink, purple, and white are neatly arranged on the base next to the plaque, along with a terracotta pot and a piece of white fabric. The plaque, presented in Latvian, Russian, and English, details the tragic event it commemorates: "On 21 November, 2013 in this very place at 20 Priedaines Street, 54 people died and several dozen suffered injuries after the collapse of the supermarket. To commemorate the Zolitude tragedy, Riga City Council has established a temporary memorial as a first symbolic step towards an eternal site of national remembrance." The date "21.11.2013" is also carved into the concrete base. In the background, a road is visible with some traffic. Beyond the road, a large building with a "Rimi 8-22" sign and another sign stating "BRĪVA VIETA JŪSU REKLAMAI" (Free space for your advertisement) with a phone number are discernible. Bare trees line the distant background, suggesting an autumn or early spring season. The overall scene is a solemn memorial located in Riga, Latvia, honoring the victims of the Zolitūde supermarket collapse.Green glass memorial sculpture observed
