‘Visit of the splendid historical entrance of the Château de Rambouillet.’ On 30 July 1960, German cartoonist Corso illustrates the meeting between French President de Gaulle and Federal Chancellor Konrad Adenauer at the Château de Rambouillet. During their discussions, the two men sketch out broad plans for the political reorganisation of Europe around a Franco-German core. On the steps, the two allegorical figures for France and Germany, Marianne and Michel, are standing face to face in front of an imposing entrance flanked by statues of Adenauer and de Gaulle which form the pillars supporting ‘Europe’.
