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. Standing tall on a tank, fired by two powerful lions symbolizing popular force, Marianne takes center stage as she embodies universal suffrage. Surrounding her are allegories representing Labour, Justice, Peace, and abundance - all essential pillars of society. The presence of children in the photo serves as a poignant reminder of the pedagogic mission entrusted to the Republic. As they gather around Marianne, their hopeful faces reflect a future shaped by democratic values and education. Driving this coupling towards progress is none other than the genie of Liberte (Liberty). With determination etched on her face, she guides Marianne and her ideals forward. Aime Jules Dalou's masterpiece stands proudly in Paris' Place De La Nation - an enduring symbol that celebrates France's commitment to democracy and equality. The intricate details captured in this photograph highlight both the artistic brilliance behind Dalou's work and its historical significance. Through this image, we are transported back to 2011 when Photo Josse skillfully documented this timeless piece for all to admire. As we gaze upon it today, we can't help but be reminded of humanity's ongoing pursuit for freedom and justice across nations.
