EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Reason" transports us back to the tumultuous era of the French Revolution. Engraved by Carre in 1793, this colour lithograph is a stunning representation of personified Reason. Created by Claude Louis Desrais, it now resides in the Musee Carnavalet in Paris. The personification of Reason takes center stage, depicted as a powerful and regal female figure. She stands tall and confident, adorned with armor that symbolizes her strength and vigilance. A lion rests peacefully at her side, embodying courage and authority, while a snake curls around her arm representing wisdom and knowledge. Intriguing symbols surround Reason; fasces - an ancient Roman symbol of power - lies at her feet, reminding us of the revolutionary spirit that swept through France during this time. Her piercing eye reflects unwavering determination as she holds up a mirror to society's injustices. Classical influences are evident throughout the artwork, emphasizing its timeless significance. As a muse for inspiration during such turbulent times, Reason serves as both guide and protector for those seeking enlightenment amidst chaos. This print captures not only the artistic brilliance but also the historical importance of this masterpiece from Desrais' oeuvre. It invites viewers to reflect on the enduring power of reason and its role in shaping societies past and present.
