Justice — Histoire et analyse

Les deux façades de l'Hôtel de Ville sont surmontées de trois statues en bronze. Sur l'élévation avant, la Paix est flanquée des vertus Sagesse et Justice, dont ces figures en terre cuite sont les modèles réduits. Sur l'élévation arrière, Atlas porte le globe céleste, avec Tempérance et Vigilance à ses côtés.

Le message exprimé ici est que la paix universelle, sur terre et dans les cieux, dépend de ces quatre vertus.
