EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "He felt so brave that he went up to the lion and began to talk to him" artist Harry Rountree brings Aesop's fable, The Fox and the Lion, to life. The scene depicts a fearless fox standing before a majestic lion, engaging in an unexpected conversation. The image exudes a sense of courage as the fox fearlessly approaches the powerful beast. With head held high and eyes filled with determination, the fox demonstrates his audacity by initiating a dialogue with the king of the jungle. It is as if he possesses an unwavering confidence that transcends his small stature. Rountree's masterful engraving technique adds depth and texture to each stroke, enhancing both characters' expressions. The lion's regal demeanor contrasts beautifully with the fox's boldness, creating a visual tension that draws viewers into their interaction. This print serves as a reminder of our own capacity for bravery in facing challenges head-on. It encourages us not only to confront our fears but also to find strength within ourselves when we need it most. Just like this daring fox who defies expectations by conversing with a predator, we too can discover hidden reserves of courage within ourselves when confronted with adversity. As part of Aesop's timeless fables collection published in 1935 by Childrens Press, Rountree's artwork continues to inspire generations through its portrayal of bravery against all odds.
