EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Against whose with difficult taste" takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in the world of Fables by La Fontaine. The intricate engraving, created by Grandville (Jean Ignace Isidore Gerard), captures the essence of this renowned literary work. In this scene, we find ourselves in a study adorned with classic French furniture. A man sits at his desk, engrossed in deep contemplation as he peruses a book. His quill poised above an inkwell suggests that he is either about to write or has just finished penning his thoughts. The attention to detail is remarkable - from the carefully crafted lines on the man's face that reveal years of wisdom and experience, to the subtle observation of light falling upon him through a nearby window. Every element within this composition adds depth and meaning to the overall narrative. As we examine further, our eyes are drawn towards a painting hanging on one wall depicting scenes from Troy. This inclusion hints at an appreciation for classical literature and history prevalent during this period. Overall, this print not only showcases Jean Duvallon's exceptional talent but also serves as a testament to the enduring beauty and influence of La Fontaine's fables on French literature and art. It invites us into a world where imagination meets reality; where words come alive through exquisite engravings like these.
