Broadside, text in English and French in two columns. 12-1/4x8 inches. A broadside prospectus for a noted allegorical print celebrating the American Revolution. We locate only two known examples of this broadside (John Carter Brown Library and Winterthur Museum). The print, first published in 1796 and then again with the addition of extensive descriptive text in 1798, used classical iconography to illustrate America's victory in the American Revolution, with the gods (led by Minerva, with the American eagle on her aegis) paying honor to American heroes and laying waste to the concepts and persons of monarchy. As a French veteran of the American Revolution and transatlantic witness to the French Revolution, it is perhaps unsurprising that the artist Renault would choose such subject matter for this dramatic piece. Reilly describes the print and its features in detail: An allegory of liberty flourishing and monarchy and tyranny in decline. In a wooded grove Minerva, with a shield bearing the arms of the United States and a flag emblazoned with stars, pours libations on an altar fire. Beside her are three female figures. The first, Plenty, holds a torch to a pile of titles of nobility, crowns, scepters, and other attributes of monarchy. Justice holds a sword and scales, and Peace an olive branch. Behind them is a small pyramid on a pedestal inscribed with the names: Hancock, Warren, Sullivan, Putnam, Scamel, Barber, Green, Laurens, Wooster, Mercer, and Poor. Two urns on the monument are labeled "B. Franklin" and "Montgomery." To the right is a column, surmounted by a seated, nude Liberty figure holding a wreath. Below it stands a cherub with a scroll with the words 'Allons enfans de la Patrie.,' an open book labeled 'The Rights of Man,' a staff and liberty cap, and a flag. Behind is a mountainous landscape and town. In the lower right foreground stands another group, including a king about to stab himself, several other monarchs cringing, and a standing woman. In the lower left stand an aged classical priest and a writhing, mutilated hydra appear. Not much is known about Renault or Verger beyond their production of this print.

framed. Zustand: near fine. Photograph of vaudeville performer and female impersonator Francis Renault. Please inquire for more information. Francis Renault (born Antonio Auriemma) also known by the stage name Auriema, was a female impersonator and vaudeville performer who performed in the United States beginning in the 1910s. Renault first performed under the name Auriema in Providence, Rhode Island in 1911. He adopted the name of Francis Renault in the mid-1910s, as he gained popularity and began touring. He primarily impersonated American singer and actress Lillian Russell. By the 1920s, Renault was being billed as the "world's greatest female impersonator".[.
