Detailed Solution

Symbols of absolutist institutions are scattered on the ground. In Sorrieu's utopian vision, the world's peoples are organised into different nations, identifiable by flags and national costumes. The United States and Switzerland, already nation-states at the time, led the parade far past the Statue of Liberty. France, distinguished by the revolutionary tricolour, has just recently arrived at the statue. She is trailed by Germans carrying black, red, and gold flags.
Interestingly, the German people did not yet exist as a united nation when Sorrieu painted this image. Their flag expresses liberal ambitions in 1848 to merge several German-speaking princes into a nation-state under a democratic constitution. The peoples of Austria, the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, Lombardy, Poland, England, Ireland, Hungary, and Russia, follow the Germans. Christ, saints, and angels look down from above on the scene. The artist has used them to represent fraternity among the world's nations.
