  • A public monument in Philadelphia about the Armenian Genocide is Young Meher by the sculptor Khoren Der Harootian (1909-1991). This 22 foot high monument is located next to the Philadelphia Museum of Art and is under the custody of the Fairmount Park Commission. Executed in 1975 in bronze and dedicated on April 24, 1976, the sculpture Meher symbolizes the invincible faith of the Armenian people, its long history and Day of Infamy, April 24, 1915. The bas-relief on the East side of the sculpture depicts a vulture peering over a field of skeletons. Meher, the subject of the title, is a legendary figure from the Middle Ages symbolizing the spirit of the Armenians.
