EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print by the renowned French artist Gustave Dore. Created between 1832 and 1883, this engraving beautifully captures the essence of Jean de La Fontaine's fables. Dore's illustrative technique brings to life the timeless story of an oyster caught in a dispute among various creatures. In this enchanting artwork, we witness the intricate details that define Dore's signature style. The use of color adds depth and emotion to each character, while the engraved image showcases his mastery of this medium.
