EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving titled "Illustration for The Dog and the Ox" from Aesop's Fables, created in 1666 by Francis Barlow. Preserved at the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this artwork depicts a powerful moral tale known as "Le Chine evieux du Boeuf". In this allegorical scene, we witness the dog's envy towards the ox's strength and size. The dog is portrayed with anger-filled eyes while barking fiercely at the ox who calmly lowed in response. Meanwhile, a cockerel stands nearby observing their interaction alongside a group of hens and chicks within a rustic barn filled with hay. Barlow masterfully captures both the physicality of these animals and their emotional expressions through intricate engravings. This timeless illustration not only serves as visual entertainment but also imparts valuable life lessons to its viewers. Aesop's Fables have long been celebrated for their didactic nature, teaching readers about human behavior through animal characters. Through this engraving, Barlow reminds us of the destructive power of envy and jealousy that can consume even our closest companions. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, let us reflect on our own actions and emotions when faced with similar situations. May it serve as a reminder to appreciate our unique qualities rather than succumbing to bitterness or resentment towards others' strengths or successes.
