EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving from La Fontaine's Fables, illustrated by Gustave Dore, captures the essence of a timeless tale - "The Lion and the Gnat". In this retro revival print, we are transported to the 19th century with its distinctive style and emphasis on animal themes. The image portrays an antique scene where an obsolete woodcut engraving brings to life the allegory painting found in literature. In this illustration, we witness a fascinating encounter between two contrasting creatures. A majestic lion, symbolizing power and strength in Victorian style, stands tall as he roars with all his might. Beside him is a minuscule gnat - insignificant in size but determined to make its presence known. The artist skillfully highlights the stark contrast between these characters through their scale. This fantasy-like portrayal invites us into a world where history meets imagination. As we gaze at this black and white masterpiece, it sparks our curiosity about animal behavior and attributes. Through this artwork, Duncan1890 beautifully captures not only the natural world but also human nature itself. It reminds us that even small beings can create irritation or have an impact far beyond their size. As we admire this old-fashioned print, let us appreciate how art has preserved stories like Jean de la Fontaine's fables for generations to come. It serves as a testament to both Gustave Dore's talent as an illustrator and La Fontaine's enduring literary legacy.
