EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Eight Fables of La Fontaine (Furnishing Fabric)" created by Hartmann et Fils in Munster around 1810. The intricate design features a collection of drawings from the renowned fables written by Jean de la Fontaine, beautifully illustrated by Jean Baptiste Oudry. The fabric depicts various enchanting scenes, including "Le Satire et le passant" (The Satyr and the passer-by), "Le Cheval qui a casse sa bride" (The Horse that broke its bridle), "La Lionne, qui a p[?] ses lionceaux" (The Lioness [illegible] her cubs), "Le vieillard et ses Enfans" (The old man and his Children), "Le Renard et le Buste" (The Fox and the Bust), and "L huitre et les plaideurs" (The Oyster and the Litigants). With its rich colors, copperplate printing technique, and cotton plain weave material, this furnishing fabric exudes elegance and sophistication. It serves as both an exquisite piece of art for any interior decoration project as well as a tribute to French literature. As we admire this remarkable artwork captured in monochrome tones, we are transported back to 19th-century France where these timeless fables were cherished. This print is not only a testament to the skillful craftsmanship of Hartmann et Fils but also a celebration of cultural heritage that continues to inspire us today.
