With meticulous attention to detail, artist Deborah Francois skillfully recreates the essence of this historical moment. The print exudes an air of excitement as we witness the physical acumen displayed by the characters engaged in this spirited game. Their animated expressions and dynamic postures convey their enthusiasm for this competitive pastime. As we delve into Rabelais' literary world through this artwork, we are reminded of his unparalleled ability to blend satire with intellectual discourse.
