D-154. Germania. (108X90.) Christian Köhler.
The struggle of the German people in the year 1848 gave rise to this allegorical composition. Germania, the Goddess of Germany, awakened from her slumber on a bear's skin by Justice and Liberty, seizes the national crown and sword, and drives away the demons of Despotism and Discord. This picture was finished in 1849, when it was purchased by Mr. John G. Boker, and brought by him to New York, where for many years it was exhibited in the Düsseldorf Gallery.
