EDITORS COMMENTS
This image depicts a scene from the legendary tales of Gargantua and Pantagruel, two giants from the vivid imagination of the French author François Rabelais. In this particular illustration, we witness Baby Pantagruel, the son of Gargantua, being supplied with milk directly from the udders of cows. This scene is taken from the first book of Rabelais's masterpiece, titled "Gargantua and Pantagruel," published in 1532. Rabelais's works are renowned for their grotesque humor, satire, and celebration of the human body. The image of Baby Pantagruel sucking from the cows' udders is a testament to the author's playful exploration of the themes of gluttony, size, and the natural world. The image also highlights the importance of nourishment and the bond between a mother and her child. The publication of Rabelais's works during the 16th century marked a significant moment in the history of literature. His works challenged the social norms of the time and paved the way for the development of modern literature. The image of Baby Pantagruel and the cows not only offers a glimpse into the fantastical world of Rabelais but also serves as a reminder of the enduring power of storytelling and the human imagination. This print, which dates back to the 19th century, is a beautiful and intriguing representation of a scene from Rabelais's classic works. It invites us to explore the rich history of literature and the captivating tales of Gargantua and Pantagruel.
