Installation by glass engraver on the move
GLASS engraver Alison Kinnaird's Unknown installation, a glass army created as the Midlothian-based artist's response to war, moves across Edinburgh to St Mary's Cathedral, where it will appear for a week, including Remembrance Day, having been on display at the Scottish Parliament throughout October.
This showing is in association with Poppy Scotland and the work will then go on display at venues round the country until 2016. Details of where and when the installation can be seen can be found at the artist's website.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
