EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of "The tank of the nation or triumph of the Republic" a bronze sculpture by Aime Jules Dalou. The sculpture stands proudly in Paris, at Place De La Nation, serving as a symbol of universal suffrage. In this image, Marianne, personifying the spirit of France, stands atop a tank fired by two powerful lions representing popular force. She is surrounded by allegorical figures depicting Labour, Justice, Peace, and abundance - all essential elements for a thriving society.

The genie of Liberte can be seen driving the coupling that propels Marianne forward on her noble quest for freedom and progress. This imagery beautifully encapsulates the ideals that underpin French democracy.
