EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration from the renowned fables of Jean de La Fontaine. Titled "Both Cocks" this artwork is a visual representation of one of La Fontaine's timeless tales, brought to life by the talented artist Francois Chauveau. The scene depicted in this engraving takes us to a rustic farm setting, where two majestic roosters engage in a fierce brawl. The intricate details and masterful use of lines by Chauveau beautifully capture the intensity and energy of their confrontation. La Fontaine's fables are beloved for their ability to convey profound moral lessons through animal characters, and this particular illustration exemplifies that essence. Through these battling roosters, we can discern themes such as pride, dominance, and the consequences of unnecessary conflict. Dating back to 1728, this edition holds historical significance as it allows us to appreciate both Chauveau's artistic prowess and La Fontaine's literary genius. It serves as a testament to the enduring impact that these works have had on French literature and poetry. Giancarlo Costa has skillfully captured this remarkable piece with his lens, preserving its beauty for generations to come. This print offers art enthusiasts an opportunity to bring home a slice of French culture while immersing themselves in the enchanting world created by La Fontaine and brought vividly to life by Chauveau.
