EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a scene from the classic Greek love story, "Daphnis et Chloe" as imagined by Philippe d'Orleans in the 18th century. The illustration showcases Daphnis and Chloe coming to the rescue of Dorcon, who is being attacked by their dogs. The intricate details and delicate lines of d'Orleans' drawing bring this moment to life. The setting transports us to the idyllic countryside, where shepherds tend to their flocks against a backdrop of rolling hills and lush greenery. In this tranquil landscape, we witness an act of bravery and compassion as Daphnis and Chloe rush to save Dorcon from harm. The figures are beautifully rendered, capturing both strength and grace. Dressed in traditional attire, they exude an air of timeless elegance that reflects the ancient origins of this tale. Their expressions convey determination mixed with concern for their friend's safety. This print not only captures a pivotal moment in "Daphnis et Chloe" but also serves as a testament to the enduring power of literature across centuries. It reminds us that stories have the ability to transcend time and place, resonating with audiences throughout history. As we gaze upon this enchanting artwork, we are reminded of our shared humanity and our capacity for heroism in times of need. It invites us into a world where love conquers all obstacles – even those posed by fierce canines – reminding us that true friendship knows no bounds.
