EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a central double page from the late 19th-century publication "Letters: L M N O P Q Rs" in the renowned "ABC Les Images en Alphabet" series. The engraving, created by Jean Duvallon and published by Pellerin and Cie in Epinal, France, circa 1890, measures 19.5 x 13.5 cm. The image features a delightful assortment of characters and scenes that bring to life various stories and fables. In the center, we see a wolf standing menacingly near a goat and her biquets (baby goats), evoking tension and fear. Surrounding them are depictions of well-known tales such as "La Mere Michel" "Le Nain jaune" "L'Ogre et le Peucet". Don Quixote riding Rossinante with Sancho at his side. The intricate details of this engraving capture the essence of traditional French folklore and storytelling. From the expressive gestures of each character to the domestic setting depicted through an open door, every element adds depth to this enchanting scene. This print offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when children would gather around to play games inspired by these timeless stories. It serves as a reminder of the power of imagination and how literature has shaped our cultural heritage. Now preserved in private collections, this piece is not only visually stunning but also holds historical significance as it represents an important chapter in French art history.
