EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Franco-British Exhibition of 1908 captures a moment of sisterly affection between two iconic national symbols - Britannia and Marianne. The cover of the exhibition guide shows these two figures holding hands, symbolizing the still uneasy entente cordiale between Britain and France at that time.
Britannia, representing Great Britain, stands tall and proud with her shield and trident, while Marianne, embodying France, exudes grace and elegance with her Phrygian cap. Despite their differences in appearance and history, they come together in this image with a sense of unity and mutual respect.
The historical significance of this image cannot be understated. It serves as a reminder of the complex relationship between these two nations throughout history - marked by periods of rivalry, conflict, but also cooperation and friendship. The entente cordiale represented here is a fragile yet important bond that has shaped European politics for centuries.
As we gaze upon this image today, we are reminded of the power of symbolism to transcend political boundaries and foster understanding between different cultures. Britannia and Marianne may hold hands with sisterly affection on this cover, but their embrace speaks volumes about the enduring connection between Britain and France.
