EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "The Devil carousing with Rabelais, Gargantua, and Pantagruel," is a fascinating glimpse into the world of the renowned 16th-century French author, Francois Rabelais. The print, believed to have been published around 1532, showcases the mischievous and satirical spirit of Rabelais and his iconic characters, Gargantua and Pantagruel, as they indulge in a lively spree with the devil himself. Rabelais, known for his bawdy and scandalous tales, penned the popular series of novels, "Gargantua and Pantagruel," which chronicled the adventures of these two giant brothers. The books, filled with ribald humor and satire, were a sensation in their time and continue to be celebrated for their literary and cultural impact. In this image, Rabelais, depicted with a long beard and a mischievous grin, is seen raising a glass in a toast with the devil, who dons a horned headdress and a sinister smile. Gargantua and Pantagruel, both towering figures, join in the festivities, with Pantagruel holding a large mug and Gargantua, in typical fashion, feasting on a hearty meal. The print, which is believed to be a woodcut, is a testament to the enduring legacy of Rabelais and his irreverent tales. It serves as a reminder of the power of storytelling and the human desire to laugh, carouse, and defy the conventions of society, even in the face of the devil himself.
