EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Monkey Cat Fables La Fontaine 1886 Etching" takes us back to the enchanting world of French literature. Created in 1886, this etching showcases a scene from Jean de La Fontaine's famous fables, brought to life by the skilled hands of Gustave Moreau and Félix Bracquemond. The image portrays a mischievous monkey engaging in an animated conversation with a curious cat. The intricate details captured through the etching technique transport us into their whimsical realm, where animals possess human-like qualities and engage in witty dialogues. La Fontaine's fables have been cherished for centuries as moral tales that entertain while imparting wisdom. This particular artwork represents the final state of the plate, showcasing the artists' meticulous attention to detail and their dedication to capturing every nuance of expression on each character's face. Measuring approximately 17 5/16 x 11 13/16 inches (44 x 30 cm), this print is a testament to Parisian artistry during the late nineteenth century. It serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time, allowing us to appreciate historical literary works through visual interpretations. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection, we are reminded of our own capacity for imagination and storytelling – just like these playful creatures depicted before us.
