Bern, Switzerland - Universal Postal Union Sculpture: A Monumental Symbol of International Unity and Cooperation This photograph captures the Universal Postal Union sculpture, a historic landmark located in Bern, Switzerland. Designed by renowned French sculptor Rene de Saint-Marceaux in the 1910s, this masterpiece represents a significant milestone in the history of international postal services. The sculpture, titled "Weltpost" or "Universal Postal Union," is a testament to the unity and cooperation among the world's nations in the realm of postal communication. The monument features five human figures, each representing a different continent – Europe, Asia, Africa, America, and Australia. The figures are depicted with their hands encircling a globe, symbolizing the interconnectedness of the world and the importance of efficient international mail delivery. Rene de Saint-Marceaux, a prolific artist known for his public monuments, designed this sculpture to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Universal Postal Union, an intergovernmental organization founded in 1874 to promote and facilitate international postal policies. The sculpture was unveiled on September 1, 1913, and has since become a cherished symbol of Bern and a reminder of the enduring spirit of international cooperation. This photograph, taken in the 1910s, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the beauty and significance of this remarkable artwork that continues to inspire and captivate visitors to Bern, Switzerland.
