EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving, titled "Animals sick of plague (les animaux malades de la peste) - Fables by La Fontaine" transports us into the imaginative world of French literature. Created by Jean Ignace Isidore Gerard, also known as Grandville, this artwork brings to life the iconic fables written by Jean de La Fontaine. The detailed illustration showcases a variety of animals adorned in costumes and clothing, reflecting their anthropomorphic qualities. A regal lion wearing a crown presides over the scene while other creatures such as a donkey, wolf, bird, fish, and fox gather around him. Each animal seems to embody human characteristics and emotions. The underlying theme of illness is evident through the depiction of some animals appearing weak or unwell. This portrayal serves as an allegory for sickness and disease that affects both humans and animals alike. The artist's attention to detail highlights not only their physical ailments but also their expressions conveying pain or discomfort. Through this enchanting print, Grandville captures the essence of La Fontaine's timeless fables that continue to resonate with readers today. The combination of intricate engravings with elements from nature creates a visually striking composition that invites viewers into a world where animals take on human traits and confront universal challenges like illness. This photograph preserves an important piece of literary history while showcasing Grandville's artistic prowess in capturing the essence of these beloved characters from centuries past.
