La statue de la Résistance par Falguière (The statue of the Resistance by Falguière) was a 9-foot tall
Theodore de Banville wrote an ode and Félix Bracquemond made an etching published by Faustin Betbeder
. After the snow sculpture had melted, Falguière's attempts to recreate it in a more permanent medium were unsuccessful, lacking the original's spontaneity. It was Falguière's first female nude, a subject in which he later specialised.
