Justification of statement from picture
Explanation:
- The Liberty Tree is planted in Zweibrücken, Germany.
- The occupation of Zweibrücken by the French army is the subject of this colour print by German painter Karl Kaspar Fritz.
- The French soldiers, identifiable by their blue, white, and red uniforms, are depicted as oppressors, seizing a farmer's cart (left), harassing three young women (centre foreground), and forcing a peasant to his knees.
- A German inscription may be found on the plaque fastened to the Tree of Liberty, which reads:
- 'Take our freedom and equality, the model of mankind, off us.' This is a satirical allusion to the French assertion that they were liberators who fought monarchy in the lands they conquered.
hence, this is the Justification of the statement from picture
