EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th-century print titled "The Fox and the Drum" is a folio from the renowned Kalila wa Dimna, an Arabic literary masterpiece. The anonymous creator skillfully brings to life this enchanting fable through vibrant colors and intricate details. Set in ancient Arabia, the scene depicts a cunning fox standing before a beautifully adorned drum, while various birds observe with curiosity.

The use of Arabic script adds an authentic touch, further immersing viewers into this timeless tale. This manuscript holds significant historical value as it belongs to the esteemed collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
