23. Watercolor; Ed Wismer of Ocean City, New Jersey; The Monument and Atlantic City High School. Within the monument is a bronze replica of the Marne Monument. The original is a stone colossal monument designed by Frederick MacMonnies. The Battle of the Marne Monument is the counterpart of our Statue of Liberty. About 70’ in height, it is a gift from America to France immortalizing the heroic French stand against the German forces outside of Paris in September 1914. It was paid by school children and in part by private contributions from all over the the United States. The Committee for the Memorial selected Frederick MacMonnies to design the model, and subsequently Edmondo Quattrocchi, another American sculptor, to translate the work into stone.
