"The
Fountain of Regeneration" In this engraving of the Festival of Reunion
or Unity of 10 August 1793, a female statue of Nature in the form
of the Egyptian goddess Isis represents the regeneration of the French
people. It sits on the site of the Bastille prison, whose fall signaled
the beginning of the Revolution. The engraving depicts the statue
as made of stone, but in fact it was hastily constructed of papier
mache. This engraving was printed in 1797 as part of a series of commemorative
prints of events of the revolution. |
