EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an enchanting scene from the renowned fable "The Raven and the Fox" by La Fontaine, published in 1776. The image depicts a beautifully detailed engraving of a raven and a fox, brought to life by the skilled hands of an anonymous French artist from the 18th century. As we delve into this timeless tale, we witness the cunning fox employing its sly tactics to deceive the majestic raven. With eloquent poetry and masterful storytelling, La Fontaine's words come alive through this exquisite artwork. The intricate details captured in this photograph allow us to appreciate not only the artistic brilliance behind it but also the profound symbolism within. The contrasting characters of both animals are brilliantly portrayed –the wise yet vulnerable raven perched upon a branch while being flattered by the charismatic fox below. Through this visual masterpiece, we are reminded of our own human nature - susceptible to flattery and prone to falling victim to deceitful charms. This thought-provoking piece serves as a gentle reminder that appearances can be deceiving and that wisdom lies in discernment. With Leonard de Selva's expert photography skills capturing every nuance with precision, this print transports us back in time, immersing us in La Fontaine's world of moral lessons disguised as delightful animal tales. It is undoubtedly an invaluable addition for any lover of literature or admirer of fine art seeking inspiration from centuries past.
