Churchill Avenue Paris the statue of Winston Churchill 1998, Jean Cardot Petite Palace
The statue of Winston Churchill was commissioned at the start of 1998, five years after a statue of Charles de Gaulle was unveiled in London. The two leaders had a complex relationship, both on personal terms and in France–United Kingdom relations.[2]
Paris-based British businessman Brian Reeve came up with the idea. The 3.2 metre, 2,500 kg bronze statue was funded by 3,000 donations totalling the equivalent of £250,000. The largest donation was equal to £20,000, and the Council of Paris also contributed. It is based on a photograph of Churchill marching with De Gaulle down the Champs-Élysées on 11 November 1944. Cardot said that the image of Churchill walking reflected his determination. The plinth features the words "We shall never surrender" from the prime minister's 6 June 1940 speech.[3]
On 11 November 1998, the 80th anniversary of the armistice that ended World War I, the statue was unveiled in the presence of Queen Elizabeth II and the President of France, Jacques Chirac. The British monarch gave a speech in French on how Churchill and De Gaulle had overcome their differences.[3] Love SummerTime TV WorldWide Magazine YouTube.
