Inspired by the art of classical antiquity, Silvia Pecota created this image entitled, "Pro Patria", (For Country) as an allegory.
Canada is represented by a young,
noble figure standing on a solid rock separating two oceans, symbolic of our national motto,
"A Mari Usque Ad Mare" (From Sea To Sea).
No matter how many storms we, as Canadians must endure, we will stand "strong and free".
This image was initially printed as a postcard and dedicated to our soldiers, sailors and aircrew
who have placed themselves in harm's way in the service of peace.
