EDITORS COMMENTS
screams the watch, capturing a moment of excitement and adventure in the children's book "Les animaux en train de plaisir". This illustration, created by G. H. Thompson for the 1885 edition published by Hachette et Cie in Paris, transports us to a world where animals come alive with human-like characteristics. In this whimsical scene, we find ourselves aboard a vibrant boat filled with an array of fascinating creatures. A graceful giraffe stands tall at the helm, overseeing the journey as if it were her own ship. A regal lion exudes confidence while a mischievous fox adds an element of playfulness. The tawny elephant carries passengers on its back, showcasing its strength and gentleness simultaneously. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. Each animal is depicted with intricate precision and vivid colors that bring them to life on the page. From bears to brown bears and beyond, this enchanting tableau captures our imagination and invites us into a world where animals possess their own unique personalities. This illustration not only showcases French literature from the 19th century but also highlights anthropomorphism at its finest. It reminds us that storytelling has no boundaries when it comes to sparking joy and wonder in young readers' hearts. Leonard de Selva's preservation of this artwork allows us to appreciate its beauty even today. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder, we can't help but be transported back in time to relish in the magic captured within these pages.
