The arts in France reap great benefit from the practice of the government in purchasing pictures and works of sculpture,and distributing them throughout the chief cities of the kingdom. The minister of the interior has lately presented the marble statue of Aristodemus at the Tomb of his Daughter, by M. Bau, to the city of Douai; that of the Chancellor l'Hopital, by M. DEBAY, to Aigueperse, in the Pay de Dome; that of P. Corneille, by M. CORTOT, to Rouen; and that of La Fontaine, by marble bust of Francis I. by M.DAVID, M. LAITIE, to Chateau Thievrie. The has been sent to Havre; the bust of Jean Bart, by M. PUJOL, to Dunkirk; the bust of Jeune Hachette, by M. GUERSEUL, to Beauvais; and, lastly, the bust of Duis, by M. RAGGI, to Versailles. Thus, in sculpture, as well as in pictures, every city has received the image of the men who have chiefly adorned them. This is a noble way, doubtless, to excite in their inhabitants the love of good and great actions, since it shows them that virtuous and useful citizens do not escape the grate ful remembrance of posterity. |
