EDITORS COMMENTS
In this etching titled "Reynard the Fox: Reynard Feigns Death". Allart van Everdingen masterfully captures a moment of cunning deception. The print showcases the infamous character Reynard, a sly and clever fox from medieval folklore. The scene unfolds in an enchanting forest setting, where rays of sunlight filter through the dense foliage. Reynard lies motionless on the ground, his eyes closed as if life has abandoned him. His body is perfectly still, blending seamlessly with nature's tapestry. Van Everdingen's attention to detail is remarkable; every strand of fur and blade of grass is meticulously etched onto the paper. The artist skillfully conveys both the vulnerability and intelligence emanating from Reynard's posture. This artwork invites us into a world where animals possess human-like qualities and engage in complex moral dilemmas. As we gaze upon this print, we are left wondering about Reynard's motives - what scheme or plan does he have up his sleeve? Will he deceive his adversaries once again? "Reynard Feigns Death" serves as a reminder that appearances can be deceiving and that wit can triumph over strength. It transports us back to an era when storytelling was passed down through generations, reminding us of our shared cultural heritage. As part of Liszt Collection, this exquisite piece offers not only aesthetic pleasure but also historical significance for art enthusiasts seeking to delve deeper into Dutch artistic traditions during the 17th century.
