EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving from La Fontaine's Fables, illustrated by Gustave Dore, captures the essence of a bygone era. Set in the 19th century style, this print takes us back to a time when highwaymen and criminal activity were prevalent on two-lane highways. The scene depicts an intense moment of conflict between two mules - one playing the role of a mugger or thief and the other as his unfortunate victim. In this woodcut illustration, we witness these characters arguing and stealing from each other while engaging in a physical altercation. The presence of a raccoon adds an element of surprise to the narrative. With its Victorian-style aesthetics, this engraved image transports us into a world where aggression and conflict were part of everyday life. As we delve into history through this old-fashioned artwork, it serves as both an allegory painting and fairy tale that explores social issues surrounding crime. The black-and-white composition further enhances its timeless appeal. With every stroke meticulously crafted by Gustave Dore's skilled hand, this print not only showcases his artistic prowess but also invites us to reflect upon our own pasts. It reminds us that even though times have changed drastically since then, certain aspects such as crime continue to persist throughout different eras. Overall, Duncan1890's reproduction allows us to appreciate the beauty and intricacy of literature-inspired illustrations while immersing ourselves in fantasy worlds long gone by.
