EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, titled "The Genisse the Gove and the Sheep in society with the Lion" we are transported into a world of fables and enchantment. Created by Francois Chauveau in 1728, this illustration brings to life one of Jean de La Fontaine's timeless stories. Set against a backdrop of lush greenery, we see a gathering of animals - a lion, a deer, a cow, and an ewe - all engaged in conversation. Each animal represents different characters from La Fontaine's fable, symbolizing various traits and personalities found within society. The lion stands tall and regal at the center of attention, exuding power and authority. The deer gazes upon him with reverence while the cow listens intently. Meanwhile, the ewe seems to be sharing her thoughts with them all. This artwork beautifully captures the essence of La Fontaine's storytelling prowess as he uses animals to convey moral lessons about human behavior. Through his words and Chauveau's intricate engravings, we are reminded that appearances can be deceiving and that true strength lies not only in physical might but also in wisdom and compassion. As we admire this piece from Giancarlo Costa's private collection today, let us reflect on how these centuries-old tales continue to resonate with us. They serve as gentle reminders to navigate our own societies with empathy and understanding for those around us – just as these diverse creatures do amidst their lively discussion under Chauveau's masterful hand
