Reason or Ratio
- Title
- Reason or Ratio
- Student Commentary:
- A male figure with curly hair lies at the bottom of this plate from series B of There is No Natural Religion (1971 facsimile). His arms are rigid at his side, which indicates that he is either sleeping, dead, or in a trance. His head is lifted slightly compared to the rest of his body. Above his head, a faceless figure appears to stand with arms and one leg extended. Leaves and berries surround the number at the top of the plate. The text dominates the plate and makes a clear statement that “Reason or the ratio of all we have already known, is not the same that it shall be when we know more.”
