Also, this particular statue of Hubert Lyautey in military dress was sculpted by the artist Francois Cogne, but this was only positioned within Place Denys Cochin in 1985 in order to replace a previous statue of General Mangin that was destroyed during World War II, and if you look carefully at the image, you can even see the details of the medals he was adorned with.
