EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving from La Fontaine's Fables, illustrated by Gustave Dore, captures a captivating scene of the Fox with his tail cut off. The 19th-century style and allegorical nature of this painting transport us back to a time when art was crafted meticulously by hand. In black and white, the intricate details of each animal come to life as they gather around the wounded fox. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone, where literature and art were intertwined in their storytelling. Jean de la Fontaine's timeless fables continue to resonate with audiences today, reminding us of the wisdom found within these tales. As we gaze upon this woodcut print, we are reminded of the rich history that surrounds us. The Victorian-style illustration transports us into a world where animals take on human characteristics, teaching valuable lessons about life and morality. In this particular scene, we witness the consequences faced by the cunning fox after losing its prized possession - its tail. The group of animals surrounding it serves as a reminder that actions have repercussions even in the natural world. Duncan1890's expert craftsmanship has preserved this piece beautifully over time. This antique print is not only an exquisite work of art but also a testament to our fascination with both past eras and nature itself.
