EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical colour lithograph print depicts a classic scene from Aesop's Fables, The Fox and the Stork. The English School artist of the 19th century beautifully captures the cunning fox and elegant stork in this charming illustration.
The intricate details in this artwork bring to life the famous tale of hospitality and trickery between the two animals. As the fox slyly serves soup in a shallow dish to the stork, who struggles to eat with her long beak, we are reminded of the moral lesson that actions speak louder than words.
This print is not just a visual delight but also a thought-provoking piece that encourages reflection on human nature and relationships. The contrasting colours of reds, blues, greens, and yellows add depth and dimension to this timeless story.
Displayed in a private collection, this print is part of "Bubbles," edited by Dr Barnardo in Volume 2 of The Children's Bookroom circa 1895. It is a testament to how art can transcend time and continue to inspire generations with its enduring message.
Whether you are an admirer of fables or simply appreciate fine art, this enchanting print is sure to captivate your imagination and spark conversations about morality and ethics.
