The reading Museum´s European
Collection contains a bronze cast of The Fate and the Convalescent
(La Parque et La Convalescente), created in 1894. The pair consists of
an old woman representing one of the Fates seated on a rock embracing a
young nude girl lying across her knees. The old woman is derived from
She Who Once Was The Helmetmaker´s Beautiful Wife or The Old Courtesan.
But the pair is also known as Triumphant Youth (Jeunesse triomphante).
