EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The Dog in the Manger from Aesop's Fables" we are transported into the enchanting world of one of literature's most beloved moral tales. Published by Raphael Tuck & Sons Ltd. in London, this book illustration beautifully captures the essence of John Edwin Noble's artistic vision. Set within a rustic stable, our attention is immediately drawn to a small terrier perched atop a mound of hay. With its ears alert and eyes fixed on something beyond our view, it barks fiercely, guarding the precious space as if it were its own. As we delve deeper into Aesop's timeless fable, we discover that this dog symbolizes possessiveness and selfishness. The story tells us about a dog who refuses to let hungry cows eat from their manger simply because he cannot consume the food himself. Through this simple yet profound tale, Aesop imparts upon us an important lesson about not denying others what we ourselves do not need or desire. With Bridgeman Images' expertly captured print, every detail comes alive – from the textures of straw and wood to the expressive features of each character present in this scene. This artwork serves as a reminder that even within seemingly mundane settings like stables and barns, there lies wisdom waiting to be discovered through artistry and storytelling. "The Dog in the Manger" invites us to reflect on our own actions and consider whether we too have ever been guilty of withholding opportunities or resources out of
