EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "La Vieille et les deux Servantes - The Old Woman And Her Two Servants" takes us on a journey through the pages of Jean de La Fontaine's timeless fables. Created by the talented engraver Gustave Dore, this piece beautifully captures the essence of French literature and domestic life. In this scene, we see an old woman awakening from her slumber in a quaint bedroom adorned with antique furnishings. She is accompanied by her two loyal servants, who stand dutifully by her side. The intricate details of the engraving bring to life the atmosphere of age and wisdom that permeates throughout. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the moral lessons embedded within La Fontaine's fables. It serves as a reminder that even in our old age, there is still much to be learned and appreciated. The contrast between youth and oldness depicted here symbolizes the passing of time and highlights the importance of cherishing every moment. Stefano Bianchetti has masterfully captured this iconic scene from French literature, allowing us to delve into its rich history once more. This print serves as a testament to both artistic skill and literary brilliance, making it a valuable addition to any private collection or art enthusiast's home.
