Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Marianne was an allegory of the France nation. The concept of allegory of nation occurred from personifying a Nation with a particular statue and face, which will be constant and not changeable. The artists of the 18th and 19th centuries assumed the face of the nation with the vision that “If the country/nation was a person”, so they decided to create a face as the allegory in which freedom, nationalism, justice and liberty reflected. So they unified their abstract idea about the face of the country, which was a female figure and allegory of the nation.
The correct statement would be, the allegory of France is called Marianne.
