About the Item
The Flame of Liberty, Paris
by Christian Ehlinger, French b. 1931
oil painting on canvas, unframed
signed lower left
canvas: 20 x 24 inches
provenance: private collection, Paris
Fine oil painting on canvas, by the well respected and admired French painter, Christian Ehlinger (b.1931). The work depicts the famous Flame of Liberty in Paris, which has become an unofficial memorial to Diana, Princess of Wales.
The Flame of Liberty (Flamme de la Liberté) in Paris is a full-sized, gold-leaf-covered replica of the new flame at the upper end of the torch carried in the hand of the Statue of Liberty (Liberty Enlightening the World) at the entrance to the harbor of New York City since 1886. The monument, which measures approximately 3.5 metres in height, is a sculpture of a flame, executed in gilded copper, supported by a pedestal of gray-and-black marble. It is located near the northern end of the Pont de l'Alma, on the Place de l'Alma, in the 8th arrondissement of Paris.
The Flame of Liberty became an unofficial memorial for Diana, Princess of Wales after her 1997 death in the tunnel beneath the Pont de l'Alma. The flame became an attraction for tourists and followers of Diana, who fly-posted the base with commemorative material. Anthropologist Guy Lesoeurs said, "Most people who come here think this was built for her.".
Superb example of Ehlinger's work and a lovely size painting too.
