A Crowded Bedroom Scene: An Illustration to La Fontaine's Fable "Le Petit Chien qui Secoue de l'Argent et des Pierries" (The Little Dog who obtained Money and Jewels) This print from the 1730s depicts a bedroom scene filled with an intriguing cast of characters. At the center lies a richly dressed woman, reclining on her bed, her bare feet peeking out from beneath the covers. Her lover stands at her side, gazing intently into her eyes, seemingly more captivated by her love than the wealth that surrounds them. Two servants scurry about the room, one holding a bagpipe and the other tending to a dog that lies on the floor. The scene is an illustration to Jean de La Fontaine's famous fable "Le Petit Chien qui Secoue de l'Argent et des Pierries" (The Little Dog who obtained Money and Jewels). In the tale, a poor man's dog discovers a hoard of money and jewels, which he proudly displays to his master. The master, however, is more interested in the love and companionship of his dog than the riches. The woman in the print can be seen as a representation of the master in the fable, her love for her lover transcending the material possessions that fill their bedroom. The servants and the dog add to the lively and chaotic atmosphere of the scene, further emphasizing the contrast between the material wealth and the true value of love and companionship. This print is a stunning example of the ornate and detailed style of the 1730s, with its intricate patterns, rich colors, and meticulously rendered figures. It invites the viewer to ponder the timeless themes of love, wealth, and the true value of possessions, making it a fascinating and captivating work of art.
