Identify the late 19th century french monument that was seen as a symbol of optimism and faith in industry.

The Eiffel Tower

The Eiffel Tower is a building in Paris, named after Gustave Eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower. It was built between 1887 and 1889 for the 1889 World's Fair. Although it was initially heavily criticized, it has become a cultural icon of France. Eiffel declared that the tower symbolized:

"Not only the art of the modern engineer, but also the century of Industry and Science in which we are living, and for which the way was prepared by the great scientific movement of the eighteenth century and by the Revolution of 1789, to which this monument will be built as an expression of France's gratitude."
