Equestrian statue of Maréchal Foch, Bronze equestrian statue at Place du Trocadéro-et-du-11-Novembre, 16th arrondissement of Paris, France.
The bronze statue depicts Marshal Ferdinand Foch mounted on horseback, created through collaboration between sculptors Robert Wlérick and Raymond Martin in the mid-20th century.
Following his appointment as Supreme Commander of Allied Forces in 1918, Marshal Foch led the military operations that resulted in Germany's defeat during World War I.
The statue draws design elements from the Marcus Aurelius statue in Rome, portraying Foch without the traditional képi hat worn by French military officers.
Visitors can access the monument by taking the metro to Trocadéro station and walking to Place du Trocadéro-et-du-11-Novembre, where the statue stands prominently.
The inscription on the statue recognizes Foch's triple marshal status, as he held the title in France, Great Britain, and Poland simultaneously.
