The Winged Woman best captures the law's personification in the painting of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen by La Barbier. During the days of the French Revolution, winged women were used as a political symbol. It signified the personification of the law. Its symbol was used to make the less educated population realise the French Revolution's importance and encourage them to be a part of the event. The symbol also depicted the royal power to make laws. The symbol stood as a representation of the ideas for which the Revolution was initiated. It was used to unite the common population in favour of a common ideology, resistance to the monarchy.
