EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Fables of La Fontaine: The weasel in the granary" transports us into the enchanting world of Jean de La Fontaine's timeless fables. Created by Percy James Billinghurst, this print captures a pivotal moment from one of A Hundred Fables of La Fontaine. In this particular illustration, we find ourselves amidst a tale where an audacious weasel has infiltrated a bountiful granary. With its mischievous eyes and nimble paws, the weasel cunningly navigates through sacks filled with grains, leaving no trace behind. Its slender body contorts effortlessly as it indulges in its clandestine feast. Billinghurst's attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke brings life to both the characters and their surroundings. From the texture of each grain sack to the playfulness captured in the weasel's expression, there is an undeniable sense of movement frozen within this lithograph. As viewers, we are reminded not only of our fascination with animal tales but also how these stories have been passed down through generations. Through his artistry, Billinghurst invites us to reflect on our own human nature - our desires and temptations that often lead us astray. This exquisite print serves as a testament to La Fontaine's enduring legacy and reminds us why his fables continue to captivate readers young and old alike.
