EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Le Lion Le Loup et Le Fox - The Lion, The Wolf, and The Fox" takes us on a journey through the enchanting world of fables. Created by Jean de La Fontaine in the 17th century, this engraving after Gustave Dore beautifully captures the essence of French literature. In this scene, we witness a powerful lion standing tall amidst a tawny landscape. Beside him stands a cunning fox while lurking in the shadows is an imposing wolf. Symbolizing different characters and traits, these animals represent more than meets the eye. The intricate details of this artwork transport us to a time when moral lessons were taught through storytelling. La Fontaine's fables have endured for centuries as they explore human nature and societal dynamics with wit and wisdom. The rivalry between the wolf and fox hints at their contrasting approaches to life, while the regal presence of the lion reminds us of authority and leadership. As we gaze upon this print from Stefano Bianchetti's private collection, we are reminded that even within nature itself lies valuable lessons waiting to be discovered. Let this exquisite piece serve as an invitation to delve into timeless tales that continue to resonate with readers across generations.
