Comment

A female figure waves the flag of San Marino proceeding with impetus, but at the same time on tiptoe, to symbolize the principle by virtue of which true freedom is only that which entails respect for others. Nor does the concept deviate from the truth which inspired the moral of the history of San Marino over the centuries, which never wanted to oppress or subjugate anyone.
