Physical description

Pair of elbow pads worn during the "Enchanté" tableau on the occasion of the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Composed of plates of plastazote fixed together, they are in a medieval style imitating metal armour, they are domed in a metallic pink.

Notes

In the midst of this pink frenzy, great French figures appeared. Dressed in pink, these characters have large heads made like origami. Among these characters is Joan of Arc.
