EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Illustration for The Old Woman and the Two Servants" transports us into the world of fables by Jean de La Fontaine. Created by the talented Gustave Dore, this engraving captures a poignant moment in the story of "The Old Woman and the Two Servants". In this scene, we find ourselves inside a cozy bedroom adorned with exquisite furniture and furnishings. A tired old woman lies on her bed, surrounded by two maids who have just woken up from their slumber. As morning dawns upon them, a rooster perched on a nearby chair crows to announce the start of a new day. The atmosphere is filled with symbolism as our attention is drawn to an unfortunate sight - a lifeless bird lying at the foot of one of the maids' beds. This detail serves as a reminder that even in fables, there are moral lessons to be learned. Dore's masterful technique brings every element to life: from the intricate details of each piece of furniture to the weariness etched onto each character's face. Through his artistry, he invites us to reflect upon themes such as aging, loyalty, and consequences. As we gaze upon this enchanting print from Fables by Jean de La Fontaine, we are reminded once again why these timeless tales continue to captivate readers across generations.
