EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving from La Fontaine's Fables, illustrated by Gustave Dore, captures a captivating scene titled "Husband Wife and the Robber". Set in a 19th-century style bedroom, this print exudes an air of nostalgia and history. The allegory painting depicts a heterosexual couple waking up to find themselves face-to-face with a cunning burglar. The intricate details of the furniture and domestic room transport us back to an era where gender stereotypes prevailed. The stereotypical housewife is portrayed as the protector, standing between her husband and the thief. This image reflects traditional culture and highlights societal expectations placed upon women during that time. Gustave Dore's masterful woodcut technique brings this fairy tale-like illustration to life. His artistic prowess shines through in every engraved line, creating depth and texture within the image. As we admire this antique artwork, we are reminded of how literature has shaped our understanding of past eras. Jean de la Fontaine's fables have stood the test of time, becoming obsolete yet retaining their charm. This print serves as a visual representation of his timeless storytelling. With its retro revival aesthetic, this piece would make for an intriguing addition to any art collection or home interior décor. It invites viewers into a world filled with fantasy while simultaneously sparking contemplation on historical perspectives surrounding crime, marriage dynamics, and societal roles.
