EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving from La Fontaine's Fables, illustrated by Gustave Dore, captures the essence of an enchanting tale. In this 19th-century style print, we are transported into a world of allegory and animal themes. The image showcases a mesmerizing scene where a cormorant hunts for fishes in a captivating fountain. The black and white tones add to the antique charm of this art piece, evoking nostalgia and taking us back to the past. The intricate details in Dore's woodcut style bring life to each living organism depicted - from the graceful sea bird to the elusive fish swimming beneath the water's surface. As we gaze upon this illustration, our imagination is ignited with thoughts of fairy tales and fantasy worlds. It reminds us of Jean de la Fontaine's timeless literature that continues to captivate readers even today. With its Victorian-style aesthetic and retro revival feel, this print becomes more than just an artwork; it becomes a window into history itself. It transports us back to an era when craftsmanship was celebrated and storytelling held great significance. Duncan1890 has masterfully captured all these elements in his depiction of "La Fontaines Fables - Cormorant and the Fishes". This print is not only a beautiful addition to any art collection but also serves as a reminder of our connection with nature and the wonders found within it.
