The most moving image in the People's Gallery is The Death of Innocence, which shows the radiant figure of 14-year-old schoolgirl Annette McGavigan who was killed in crossfire between the IRA and the British Army on 6th September 1971, thus becoming the 100th victim of the Troubles. Representing all the children who died in the conflict, she stands against the brooding chaos of a bombed-out building, the roof beams forming a crucifix in the top right-hand corner. At the left, a downward-pointing rifle, broken in the middle, represents the failure of violence, while the butterfly symbolises resurrection and the hope embodied in the peace process.
