Sculptor Henry Hering’s Regeneration is one of four relief sculptures installed in 1928 on the tender houses of the DuSable Bridge, paid for by the B.F. Ferguson Monument Fund–a unique Chicago civic sculpture endowment. Symbolizing the rebuilding of Chicago after the Great Fire of 1871, in 2022 Regeneration and the three other bridgehouse reliefs were recommended for removal by the Chicago Monuments Project, a racial healing and historical reckoning initiative that evaluated Chicago’s memorials, monuments and public art.
