EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fable / Two Lizards" transports us into the world of Aesop's fables, specifically the tale of "The Two Lizards." In this poignant story, two lizards find themselves envious of the majestic stags they see prancing through the forest. They lament their lowly status and wish they had been born as proud stags instead. However, their perspective quickly shifts when a pack of hounds brutally attacks and tears apart one of the very stags they had admired from afar. This tragic turn of events serves as a powerful reminder that fate has a way of unfolding in unexpected ways, and what may seem like misfortune could actually be a blessing in disguise. The intricate details captured in this historical print from 1761 by Dodsley evoke a sense of nostalgia for classic fables and myths. The image beautifully encapsulates the essence of this timeless tale, with the lizards bemoaning their fate while witnessing the downfall of those they once envied. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking artwork, we are reminded to appreciate our own unique paths in life and not to yearn for something different without fully understanding its consequences. The moral lessons embedded within Aesop's fables continue to resonate through generations, making them an enduring source of wisdom and reflection.
