EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving from La Fontaine's Fables, illustrated by Gustave Dore, captures the essence of a timeless allegory. Titled "Wolf the Goat and Kid" this 19th-century style print showcases an agricultural building as its backdrop. The image exudes nostalgia, taking us back to a bygone era filled with artistry and craftsmanship. The scene depicts a wolf cunningly disguised among a goat and her kid. With intricate details brought to life through woodcut techniques, Gustave Dore masterfully portrays the tension between predator and prey. This fine art painting beautifully merges animal themes with human emotions, reminding us of Jean de la Fontaine's literary genius. As we gaze upon this illustration created over a century ago, we are transported into the world of La Fontaine's fables where animals become vessels for moral lessons. The Victorian style adds an air of sophistication while highlighting the enduring power of storytelling in our collective history. This print serves as both an ode to past artistic traditions and a testament to our fascination with the natural world. It evokes feelings of admiration for obsolete practices while celebrating the beauty found within old-fashioned works of art. Duncan1890 has skillfully curated this piece from his collection at Fine Art Storehouse, allowing us to appreciate not only Gustave Dore's talent but also his own passion for preserving artistic treasures like these prints that continue to captivate audiences today.
