Monument aux morts de Port-Vendres, War memorial sculpture in Port-Vendres, France.
The bronze statue depicts a reclining woman holding olive branches, representing peace and remembrance, measuring 1.65 meters high and 2.25 meters wide.
Commissioned in 1919 and inaugurated in 1923, this monument stands as a tribute to soldiers from Port-Vendres who perished during World War I.
The sculpture represents Aristide Maillol's artistic vision, combining classical forms with modern sensibilities in the representation of the female figure.
Located in Place de l'Obélisque facing the port, the monument features commemorative plaques and remains accessible throughout the year.
A bronze replica of this stone monument has been displayed since 1964 in the Carrousel Garden near the Louvre Museum in Paris.
