Caught Fable Fables Fontaine Hides Hunt Master Oxen Safe Stable Stag Myth
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "The Eye of the Master," is a timeless reminder of the ancient fable of Fable, also known as "The Stag at the Feast" or "The Master's Eye." Dating back to the 1870s, this print showcases the artistry of French illustrator Paul Fontaine. The scene depicts a majestic stag, camouflaged and seeking refuge among a stable of oxen. The atmosphere is serene, with the dimly lit stable providing a sense of safety and security for the wary stag. However, the tranquility is short-lived as the master enters the stable, his keen eyes piercing through the darkness. The other hunters, unaware of the stag's presence, remain oblivious. The master, with his exceptional vision, spots the stag, and the hunt resumes. This historical print is a testament to the enduring power of fables and the wisdom they impart. The fable of "The Stag at the Feast" serves as a reminder of the importance of being vigilant and observant, even in the most unexpected places. The intricate details in Fontaine's illustration bring the story to life, transporting us back in time to an era when stories were shared through art and word of mouth. This print is not only a beautiful addition to any home or office, but it also serves as a thought-provoking conversation starter. As you gaze upon the image, you can't help but ponder the lessons hidden within the story and the significance of the master's keen eye. This print is a must-have for history buffs, art enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates the power of a good story.
