In this particular rendition, we witness an intriguing twist as both the farmer and his son carry the donkey on a portable Aesopic fable. The series title itself emphasizes the significance of these moral tales passed down through generations. The intricate etching on paper, created by Wenceslaus Hollar in Germany between 1627 and 1628, beautifully captures every detail of this thought-provoking image. Measuring at approximately 116mm in height and 159mm in width, it is a testament to Hollar's skill as an artist. As we delve into this artwork, we are reminded of Aesop's wisdom that often lies within seemingly simple stories. This particular fable teaches us about adaptability and compromise - qualities essential for success in life.

Whether displayed as part of a personal collection or used for educational purposes, this remarkable piece invites viewers to reflect upon age-old lessons that still hold relevance today. It serves as a reminder that beneath its aesthetic appeal lies a profound message waiting to be discovered by those who take the time to explore its depths.
