EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving from La Fontaine's Fables, illustrated by Gustave Dore, transports us back to the 19th century with its retro revival style. The scene depicts the timeless tale of "The Grasshopper and the Ant" showcasing a young woman and a man in traditional Victorian attire. As they stand on a doorstep adorned with an enchanting fountain, their attention is captured by a street musician strumming an acoustic guitar. The black and white woodcut illustration exudes nostalgia and history, evoking feelings of fantasy and old-fashioned charm. The intricate details bring this allegory painting to life, capturing the essence of Jean de La Fontaine's literary masterpiece. In this mesmerizing print, we witness not only the entertainment occupation of the traditional musician but also the presence of a child or baby at the entrance. This inclusion adds depth to the narrative as it highlights themes of family and offspring. As winter sets in, symbolized by snowflakes gently falling around them, we are reminded of seasonal transitions and contrasting approaches towards preparation for harsh times ahead. While one character embraces leisurely pursuits like playing music under open skies during warmer months, another diligently works toward securing provisions for colder days. Overall, Duncan1890's remarkable print encapsulates both historical significance and enduring appeal through its portrayal of characters immersed in literature within a beautifully crafted setting.
