EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the magnificent Monument dedicated to General Lafayette, a bronze sculpture located in Paris, France. The monument was created by Paul Wayland Bartlett between 1899 and 1907 as a tribute to Marie Joseph Paul Yves Roch Gilbert du Motier, also known as General Lafayette. Known for his role as a commander in the American Revolution, Lafayette's bravery and dedication were honored by the school children of the United States through this grand statue. The photograph showcases an equestrian portrait of General Lafayette, proudly riding on his horse. With a sabre in hand and dressed in military attire, he exudes strength and determination. Designed by architect Thomas Hastings (1860-1929), the monument is situated at Cour Napoleon within Palais du Louvre from 1908 until 1984 before being moved to Cours-la-Reine. Standing tall on a plinth or pedestal at Place du Carrousel, this iconic artwork serves as a symbol of gratitude towards Lafayette's crucial contributions during the French Revolutionary War and America's War of Independence. The image offers viewers a glimpse into history while highlighting both artistic excellence and historical significance.
