EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving from La Fontaine's Fables, illustrated by Gustave Dore, captures the essence of a timeless allegory. Titled "Wolf Mother and Child" this 19th-century style print showcases the intricate artistry and craftsmanship of that era. In black and white, it portrays a canine family scene filled with emotion. The image depicts a wolf mother embracing her young child in an act of protection and love. The fine art painting evokes feelings of fear, as the wild dog represents danger lurking in the background. Yet amidst this tension, there is also a sense of nostalgia for times gone by. Jean de la Fontaine's literature comes to life through this engraved image created centuries ago. It serves as a reminder of our human relationships with living organisms and how we have evolved over time. This antique print transports us back to an obsolete past where woodcuts were used to create stunning illustrations like these. Gustave Dore's artistic talent shines through his detailed portrayal of both the wolf mother and her offspring. The Victorian-style artwork exudes elegance while capturing the raw beauty found in nature. This piece invites us to reflect on themes such as family bonds, maternal instincts, and the complexities of our relationship with wildlife. Duncan1890 has preserved this remarkable piece from history so that we can appreciate its beauty today without any commercial intentions involved
