Fable Fables Fontaine Goat Goats Meet Narrow Pass Strength Stubborn Test Wanting Myth
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fable / Two Goats" transports us back to a historical myth from 1870. The image depicts two goats meeting on a narrow bridge over a river, each stubbornly wanting to pass first. As they test their strength against one another, their stubbornness leads them both to fall into the water below.
The scene captures the essence of this timeless fable, where pride and obstinacy ultimately lead to downfall. The goats' refusal to yield or compromise serves as a cautionary tale about the consequences of unchecked stubbornness.
The artist skillfully brings this classic story to life with intricate details and expressive imagery. The tension between the two goats is palpable as they stand face-to-face on the bridge, locked in a battle of wills.
As we gaze upon this evocative print, we are reminded of the power of storytelling and its ability to impart valuable lessons through allegory. This piece serves as a poignant reminder that sometimes it is better to set aside our pride and ego in order to find common ground and avoid unnecessary conflict.
Overall, "Fable / Two Goats" is not just a beautiful work of art but also a thought-provoking exploration of human nature and the importance of humility in our interactions with others.
