EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving from La Fontaine's Fables, illustrated by Gustave Dore, captures the essence of a timeless tale - "The Countryman and the Serpent". In this 19th-century style print, we are transported to a world where allegory painting meets fantasy. The image showcases intricate details that bring the story to life. Set against the backdrop of an antique building feature, a wise old grandfather sits by a roaring log fire with his grandchild. As they delve into this enchanting fairy tale together, their human relationship is strengthened through shared literature and history. The illustration depicts the moment when a countryman encounters a serpent in distress. With nostalgia for past times evident in every stroke of Gustave Dore's woodcut technique, we witness the delicate balance between man and nature. The artist expertly captures both fear and curiosity on the faces of these mature men as they navigate this encounter with an obsolete creature from another era. This Victorian-style masterpiece transports us back to an age when art was crafted meticulously by hand. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we cannot help but be reminded of our own connection to folklore and ancient wisdom passed down through generations. It serves as a reminder that even in today's fast-paced world, there is value in embracing our roots and sharing stories with loved ones around flickering firesides.
