Inspired by the tragedy which took place in Paris on November 13, 2015. Everyone at the time was recreating their own interpretation of the Eiffel Tower which I understand is a good fit because it went well with the peace sign. My thought was to explore an alternative with a bit more connection. Hence the Arc de Triomphe de l'Étoile. Historically, it was built to honor the fallen soldiers who fought during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic War. Sort of a Tombstone if you will. A sign of hope.
