EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an engraving titled "The Wolf Turned Shepherd" from the renowned collection "A Hundred Fables of La Fontaine" illustrated by Percy J. Billinghurst in 1899. The artwork, created with intricate detail and precision, transports us to the world of French literature and fables. In this enchanting scene, we witness a fascinating anthropomorphic transformation as a wolf dons the attire of a shepherd. Dressed in traditional clothing complete with a hat, the wolf assumes his new role amidst a backdrop of rolling hills and serene countryside. This depiction beautifully captures the essence of La Fontaine's fable about labor and personal growth. The black-and-white engraving adds depth to the composition while emphasizing its timeless quality. Each stroke by Billinghurst brings life to these literary characters, showcasing his mastery as an artist. As we delve into this artwork, we are reminded of the power that literature holds in shaping our understanding of human nature through animal allegories. The juxtaposition between predator and protector invites contemplation on themes such as redemption and transformation. This remarkable piece serves as both an homage to classic French literature and an exploration into humanity's complex relationship with nature. It stands as a testament to Stefano Bianchetti's dedication in preserving historical artworks for future generations to appreciate their beauty and significance.
