EDITORS COMMENTS
This frontispiece, taken from the enchanting collection of Aesop's Fables published in 1903, transports us into a world where animals come alive with wisdom and moral lessons. Crafted by the talented engraver Percy J. Billingshurst, this print showcases an array of iconic characters that have captivated readers for centuries. Intriguingly arranged within the composition are various creatures including a wolf, stork, lion, wild boar, goat, bear, ass, fox and even a majestic peacock. Each animal represents a different fable and carries its own unique message to impart upon those who delve into these timeless tales. The attention to detail is remarkable as we witness statuesque horses standing proudly amidst lush topiary gardens. The juxtaposition of domesticated farm animals alongside their wild counterparts adds depth to the narrative while emphasizing our connection with nature. As we gaze at this print from Bridgeman Images' Stapleton Collection - now out of copyright - we are reminded of the enduring power of storytelling through art. These fables continue to resonate across generations as they teach valuable life lessons disguised within charming narratives. Let this image serve as an invitation to explore Aesop's world; one filled with wit and wisdom where animals become teachers and mirrors reflecting our own human experiences.
