This is the sculpture commemorating the attack in Nice on 14 July 2016. It is located on the famous Promenade des Anglais, a boulevard that became tragically famous after the terrorist attack in which a truck ploughed into the crowd celebrating the national holiday.

The sculpture shows a stylised figure with wings that appears to be diving or flying, which is often interpreted as a symbol of hope, freedom or remembrance of the victims. The text on the base of the statue refers to the event of 14 July 2022, when the city of Nice solemnly unveiled this monument in memory of the attack. The heart-shaped symbol depicted in the centre of the base reinforces the message of love, togetherness and tribute to those who lost their lives.

This work of art emphasises the resilience and collective memory of the city.
