EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning painting titled "The Falcon" created by Pierre Subleyras in the 18th century. The artwork serves as an illustration of a fable written by Jean de La Fontaine, a renowned French fabulist. Painted with oil on canvas, this masterpiece measures 0.34 X 0.28m and is currently housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. The image captures a moment filled with intrigue and mystery. A young girl is depicted alongside a falcon, symbolizing her connection to nature and the wild spirit within her. In the background, we see a couple engaged in conversation while holding hunting weapons, hinting at themes of chivalry and seduction. Subleyras' meticulous brushstrokes bring life to every detail of this artwork - from the intricate patterns on the girl's dress to the texture of feathers on the majestic falcon's wings. The artist skillfully portrays human emotions through subtle gestures like hand-kissing and intimate chats between characters. This print not only celebrates Subleyras' artistic talent but also pays homage to La Fontaine's timeless fables that continue to captivate audiences today. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and invites us to delve into stories that explore various aspects of human nature. Courtesy: © Photo Josse
