The city of Nantes, located in western France, is a city rich in history and culture. It has been an important seaport since the Middle Ages and experienced significant economic growth during the period of industrialization in the 19th century. Today, Nantes is a dynamic and modern city, known for its cutting-edge industries, world-renowned higher education institutions and unique cultural heritage. Île aux Machines, located on the banks of the Loire, is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Nantes. It houses a unique collection of giant machines, including the Elephantine, a 12-meter-tall mechanical elephant that roams the island carrying visitors on its back. This creation is the result of the work of François Delarozière and La Machine, a company specializing in the creation of show machines. The Île aux Machines elephant has become a symbol of the city of Nantes, representing the city's creativity and innovation. This illustration by Lotza perfectly captures the essence of this emblem, while offering a unique and artistic vision of the city of Nantes.
