EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a portrait of Fontaine, the renowned French poet Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695). The image is taken from "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard, published in 1830. Fontaine's fame stems from his widely read collection of Fables, which have become timeless classics in literature. The photograph captures the essence of this influential figure from the 17th century. Dressed in traditional clothing of that era, Fontaine exudes an air of wisdom and intellect. His gaze looks away thoughtfully, as if contemplating the words that will soon flow onto paper to create yet another masterpiece. The engraving technique used adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its historical significance. The attention to detail is remarkable; every line on his face tells a story of experience and knowledge gained over time.
