EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Tribute sent by the animals to Alexander" takes us back to the 19th century and immerses us in the enchanting world of La Fontaine's fables. The intricate engraving, skillfully executed by Grandville, brings to life a scene filled with symbolism and imagination. In this artwork, we witness a gathering of various animals paying homage to the great conqueror Alexander. A majestic lion stands proudly at the center, representing strength and nobility. Surrounding him are other creatures including a horse, monkey, donkey, and wildcat - each bearing their own significance within the narrative. The composition is rich with details that invite contemplation. A treasure chest lies open before Alexander as an offering from these humble beings. Coins spill out from it symbolizing wealth and power while also alluding to the monetary value placed on tribute in ancient times. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident throughout every element of this piece. From the texture of fur on each animal's coat to their expressive facial features, Grandville captures their essence with remarkable precision. As we gaze upon this extraordinary engraving captured by Jean Duvallon's lens, we are transported into a realm where animals possess human-like qualities and engage in acts beyond our wildest imaginations. It serves as a testament not only to La Fontaine's timeless tales but also to art's ability to transcend time and bring stories alive for generations to come.
