Capital, n. A republican crown / Finlay, Ian Hamilton; Burckhardt, Lucius., 1981
The image is a hat in the style worn during the French revolution placed on top of a basket decorated with flowers.

"Seen in this way, the lost CAPITAL, is an envoy; a parody of the now solely burlesque treatment of history in this post-modernism and, as a consequence, a double negation as well, yet without the desirable positive change in values, at least from the perspective of making history." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
