The Animals Fallen Sick With the Plague, a Captivating Illustration of La Fontaine's Fables

EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures an enchanting illustration by Jean-Baptiste Oudry, depicting "The Animals Fallen Sick With the Plague" from the renowned Fables of La Fontaine. Created in 1755, this engraving beautifully brings to life Jean de la Fontaine's timeless tale. In this scene, we witness a diverse group of distressed animals gathered together in a desolate wilderness. A dog, beast, wolf, leopard, wild boar, lion, stag, bear and ass are among those depicted with striking detail. Each creature is portrayed with such realism that their suffering becomes palpable. As they stand on shaky legs or lean on walking sticks for support against their dying bodies' weightiness; it is evident that these once-majestic beings have succumbed to an unforgiving plague. The she-wolf howls mournfully in the background while wolves lurk nearby as if waiting for their next victim. Oudry's masterful technique and attention to detail transport us into this somber world where even nature's mightiest creatures are not immune to illness and despair. This fable serves as a poignant reminder of our vulnerability as humans amidst unforeseen challenges. Displayed at Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris today; this remarkable artwork continues to captivate viewers with its powerful imagery and thought-provoking narrative. It stands
