EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving from La Fontaine's Fables, illustrated by Gustave Dore, captures the timeless tale of "The Monkey and the Dolphin". Created in 19th-century style, this allegory painting showcases a fascinating animal-related activity. In this print, we witness an antique scene where a clever monkey rides on the back of a majestic dolphin. The fine art painting beautifully portrays the harmony between these two distinct creatures. The image evokes nostalgia for a past era when literature and art seamlessly intertwined to depict stories that taught valuable life lessons. Jean de la Fontaine's fable comes to life through Gustave Dore's intricate woodcut technique, showcasing his mastery as an artist. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing piece, we are transported into a world filled with imagination and wonder. The primate effortlessly glides atop the aquatic mammal, defying conventional expectations of what is possible in nature. This speculative being challenges our understanding of the natural world while captivating us with its Victorian-style charm. This print serves as a reminder of our fascination with history and how it shapes our perception of art today. It invites us to appreciate not only the beauty captured within but also the craftsmanship behind its creation—an exquisite example of retro revival that continues to inspire generations even in contemporary times.
