Detailed Solution

The 'Broken Chains' signified 'being freed'.
People became very vibrant and attentive during the revolutions, and the artists were also very supportive during this period. They advocated for a better standard of living, the right to vote, political and social rights, and, more broadly, the need for democratic republic nation states and emancipation from the ruling elites. Furthermore, the artists put forward certain symbols, pictures, and allegories to represent the struggles. Hence they introduced many signs to portray their sufferings and the changes needed. For example, "broken chains" represented "being freed", and other symbols were included like the breastplate with an eagle (symbol of German empire-strength), a crown of oak leaves (heroism), rays of the rising sun (beginning of a new era).
