EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Gustave Dore, titled "Peau-D Ane; Donkey Skin" is a visual representation of the beloved fairy tale from Les Contes de Perrault. The enchanting illustration transports us to a world of wonder and imagination. The scene depicts the titular character, Peau-D Ane (Donkey Skin), surrounded by an ethereal glow. She stands gracefully in her shimmering gown made of donkey skin, which serves as both protection and disguise. Her delicate features reflect a sense of innocence and resilience. Dore's meticulous attention to detail brings this timeless story to life. From the intricate patterns on Peau-D Ane's dress to the subtle play of light and shadow, every element contributes to the overall enchantment of the artwork. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the enduring power of fairy tales in capturing our hearts and minds. They transport us beyond reality into realms where anything is possible – where princesses can hide their true identities under animal skins and find their happily ever afters. This 19th-century masterpiece not only showcases Dore's exceptional talent but also pays homage to French culture and literature that has captivated generations. It serves as a testament to the enduring popularity of stories like "Peau-D Ane" among children and adults alike. Bridgeman Images allows us access to these remarkable works of art that continue to inspire awe even centuries after their creation.
