Her gaze is haunting, and she appears almost ghost like. Her somber figure embodies the suffering and hardship experienced by people during the Algerian War for independence.

Graffiti on the wall behind her reads "OAS" and "FLN", standing for "Organisation Armée Secrète" (secret army organization) and "Front de Libération Nationale" (the national liberation front)
