* French Revolution.The Fête de la Fédération, 14th July 1790, circa 1790, double-sided folding paper fan, the recto with hand-coloured etching depicting the fête of the French Federation, with a view of the altar in the Champ de Mars in the centre, flanked by numerous spectators and the National Guard, with the royal box on the left, and triumphal arch on the right, within a patterned border stencilled in blue and brown, verso with printed key to the illustration, lettered in centre 'le serment fait du Roi, le 14 Juillet 1790', some tiny splits to fold edges, and a little faint creasing, mounted on wooden sticks, 28 cm (11 ins) QTY: (1)NOTE:Not in Schreiber, and we have been unable to trace another such fan at auction.An extremely rare propaganda fan, in very good condition, commemorating the Fête de la Fédération which was held exactly a year after the Storming of the Bastille, as a symbol of peace and a celebration of the unity of the French nation. Bearing in mind what was to follow, it is hardly surprising that this is a very scarce fan indeed, since, with its rallying cry in favour of the king, it undoubtedly became a dangerous object to own.
