EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Les grenouilles" takes us back to the serene countryside of 19th-century France. The print showcases a rural landscape with lush green pastures and a tranquil scene that epitomizes the essence of rural life. The focal point of this artwork is a group of frogs, beautifully illustrated by an unknown French School artist from the 19th century. These fire-bellied amphibians add a touch of whimsy to the composition, their vibrant colors contrasting against the monochromatic backdrop. The image is part of an illustration for "La Chasse Illustree" a publication by Firmin Didot in 1871-72, which explores various hunting scenes during that era. It provides insight into the popular bloodsports and state hunting activities prevalent at the time. Beyond its historical context, this engraving also captures wildlife in its natural habitat. The inclusion of fishing implements suggests that these frogs may be engaged in their own version of aquatic pursuit or simply enjoying their surroundings. With meticulous detail and expert craftsmanship, this print offers viewers a glimpse into early 19th-century European life while showcasing nature's beauty through intricate engravings. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded once again why fine art has such enduring appeal across centuries and continents alike.
