Justice — História e Análise

Ambas as fachadas da Câmara Municipal são coroadas por três estátuas de bronze. Na elevação frontal, a Paz é flanqueada pelas virtudes Sabedoria e Justiça, das quais estas figuras em terracota são os modelos em escala. Na elevação traseira, Atlas suporta o globo celestial, com Temperança e Vigilância ao seu lado.

A mensagem expressa aqui é que a paz universal, na terra e no céu, depende dessas quatro virtudes.
