EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating illustration captures a whimsical moment from the children's book "Les animaux en train de plaisir" by J. Jacquin, brought to life through the skillful drawing of G. H. Thompson. Published in 1885 by Hachette et Cie in Paris, this enchanting image showcases Mr. Latrompe, an anthropomorphic character who finds himself facing a comical predicament. In the scene depicted, Mr. Latrompe has packed his trunk so full that he must sit on it to close it properly. The vibrant colors and intricate details transport us into a world where animals take on human characteristics and embark on delightful adventures together. As we explore this charming tableau, we encounter various animal characters such as a rooster, lion, bear, camel, cat, fox, and brown bear engaged in playful activities alongside Mr. Latrompe. Each creature exudes its own unique personality and adds depth to the narrative. This vintage print is part of the Selva Collection and offers us a glimpse into French literature for children during the late 19th century. Through its clever use of anthropomorphism and rich storytelling traditions, "Les animaux en train de plaisir" captivates readers young and old alike with its timeless charm. Leonard de Selva's careful preservation of this artwork allows us to appreciate not only the artistic talent behind it but also the cultural significance it holds within French literary history.
