With intricate details and skillful shading, Billinghurst creates an atmosphere that is both haunting and thought-provoking. The fable itself explores profound themes such as mortality, fate, and human nature. Through his storytelling prowess, La Fontaine uses animals as allegorical figures to convey moral lessons to his readers. This particular tale serves as a reminder of our own mortality and highlights the unpredictability of life. Displayed within a private collection but made accessible through this print, "Fables of La Fontaine: Death and the woodman" allows us to delve into centuries-old literature while appreciating the artistic talent behind its visual representation.
