This allegorical pen and wash piece by an unknown French artist focuses on Reason, the savior of humanity from the retrograde forces of Religion and Feudalism. Also prominent in the composition is the absolute equality of the races, a theme sounded more than once in the Revolution’s fervor, in the hopes equality might bring concord. A Mixed-Media work of art.
