About This Artwork
The Plaque reads as follows:
REGENERATION - The Great Chicago Fire, in October, Eighteen hundred and seventy-one, devestated the city. From its ashes, the people of Chicago caused a new and greater city to rise imbued with that indomitable spirit and energy by which they have ever been guided. Presented to the city by William Wrigley Jr., 1928
"Regeneration" sculpture on the southeast corner bridgehouse of the Michigan Avenue Bridge is one of four sculptures commissioned in 1927 by the City of Chicago, the B.F. Ferguson Monument Fund, and William Wrigley Jr. The other three sculptures are "The Pioneers," "The Discoverers," and "Defense." The sculptor is Henry Hering, who also carved the four Natural Science Angels on the exterior of the Field Museum.
