In 1848, Frederic Sorrieu, a French artist, prepared a series of four prints visualising his dream of a world made up of ‘democratic and social Republics’, as he called them.


The first print shows the people of Europe and America, men and women of all ages and social classes marching in a long train, and offering homage to the statue of Liberty as they pass by it.


On the earth in the foreground of the image lie the shattered remains of the symbols of absolutist institutions.


In Sorrieu’s utopian vision, the people of the world are grouped as distinct nations, identified through their flags and national costume.


Leading the procession, way past the statue of Liberty, are the United States and Switzerland, which by this time were already nation-states.


 France, identifiable by the revolutionary tricolour, has just reached the statue.


 She is followed by the people of Germany, bearing the black, red and gold flag. Interestingly, at the time when Sorrieu created this image, the German peoples did not yet exist as a united nation the flag they carry is an expression of liberal hopes in 1848 to unify the numerous German-speaking principalities into a nation-state under a democratic constitution.


 Following the German people are the people of Austria, the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, Lombardy, Poland, England, Ireland, Hungary and Russia. From the heavens above, Christ, saints and angels gaze upon the scene
