EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Wolf as a Shepherd" from the renowned Fables by Jean de La Fontaine. Created by Jules David, this color lithograph beautifully captures the essence of this timeless fable. In this intriguing scene, we witness the transformation of a cunning wolf into an unsuspecting shepherd. Dressed in traditional shepherd attire and holding a staff, the wolf skillfully disguises himself among the flock he once preyed upon. The intricate details of his costume and clothing add depth to his deceptive facade. La Fontaine's fables are known for their moral teachings, and this particular tale serves as a cautionary reminder about appearances that can be deceiving. As viewers, we are reminded that not everything is what it seems at first glance. The juxtaposition between predator and protector is thought-provoking, inviting us to reflect on our own perceptions and judgments. This image invites us to delve deeper into the complexities of human nature and question whether true change is possible or if one's instincts will always prevail. Displayed against a backdrop reminiscent of classic literature, this print transports us back in time to explore age-old stories that continue to resonate with audiences today. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a visual representation of enduring wisdom passed down through generations.
