La Fontaine (1621-1695) - A Celebration of French Literature and Chocolate
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This chromolitho print, created by the French School in the 19th century, showcases a remarkable blend of artistry and history. The image depicts Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695), a renowned French fabulist and author, surrounded by an array of animals and characters from his beloved fables. The composition transports us to the Exhibition of Bordeaux, where La Fontaine's literary genius is honored with the prestigious diploma of honor. Amidst this celebration, we find Chocolat Louit being recognized as well – a testament to the profound connection between literature and indulgence. A young girl stands beside La Fontaine, her eyes filled with wonder as she gazes at the enchanting scene before her. Birds flutter above them while various animals gather around – a crow perched on one shoulder, a fox curiously observing from another side. This whimsical portrayal captures not only La Fontaine's ability to bring these creatures to life through his words but also highlights their significance within his tales. As we delve into this mesmerizing artwork, it becomes evident that it serves as both an advertisement for Chocolat Louit and a tribute to France's rich cultural heritage. It invites us into a world where literature intertwines seamlessly with everyday life – where stories are shared over cups of milk chocolate in sweet shops bustling with activity. Through this print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of how great writers like La Fontaine have left an indelible mark on our collective consciousness while simultaneously igniting our senses through delectable treats like chocolate.
