EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the enigmatic and intellectual spirit of Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695), the renowned French writer and poet, best known for his collection of fables. Born in Chateau-Thierry, France, La Fontaine studied law but soon turned to literature, inspired by the works of Jean Racine and Moliere. His literary career began in earnest in 1668 with the publication of his first volume of fables, which drew heavily from the works of Aesop and other ancient and medieval sources. The fables of La Fontaine were a departure from the traditional moralistic tales, as they often contained complex social commentary and satire. His writing style was characterized by its wit, elegance, and vivid imagery, which captured the hearts and minds of the French people. The popularity of his fables led to numerous editions and translations, and they continue to be read and enjoyed around the world today. Despite his literary success, La Fontaine faced numerous challenges throughout his life. He was often criticized by the literary establishment and faced financial difficulties, but he remained dedicated to his craft and continued to write until his death in 1695. This portrait, likely taken in the latter part of his life, captures the wisdom and introspection of a man who dedicated himself to the pursuit of knowledge and the art of storytelling. La Fontaine's legacy extends far beyond the realm of literature, as his fables have been adapted into operas, ballets, and films. His influence can be seen in the works of writers such as Voltaire, Rousseau, and Goethe, and his impact on French culture is immeasurable. This portrait serves as a reminder of the enduring power of the written word and the importance of preserving the works of great writers like Jean de La Fontaine for future generations.
