EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Les Loups et les Ebis - from Fables by Jean de La Fontaine" transports us into the enchanting world of French literature. The artist, Gustave Dore, skillfully brings to life a scene from one of La Fontaine's famous fables. In this mesmerizing engraving, we find ourselves under the moonlit sky as a pack of wolves prowls through the night. Their piercing eyes and sleek bodies exude both power and grace. Among them stands an ewe, her vulnerability contrasting with the wildness surrounding her. Dore's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving tool. The intricate lines capture the texture of fur and foliage with remarkable precision. This masterful technique adds depth and dimension to the artwork, allowing us to immerse ourselves fully in this mythical realm. As we gaze at this piece, we are reminded of the timeless wisdom found within fables. La Fontaine's stories teach us valuable lessons about human nature through anthropomorphic animal characters. Through their struggles and triumphs, they mirror our own experiences and offer insights into morality and virtue. This exquisite print serves as a testament to both Dore's artistic talent and La Fontaine's literary genius. It invites us to explore the depths of our imagination while contemplating universal truths that transcend time and culture.
