EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a timeless fable by Jean de La Fontaine, one of France's most renowned poets and storytellers. Titled "The Wolf and the Stork" this image captures the essence of anthropomorphism as it brings to life two fascinating characters from French literature. Dating back to the end of the 19th century, this Epinal imaging piece beautifully depicts a wolf and a stork engaged in an intriguing encounter. The colors used in this engraving are vibrant and eye-catching, adding depth and allure to the artwork. As we delve into this fable, we witness the cunning nature of the wolf juxtaposed with the elegance of the stork. It is through their interaction that La Fontaine imparts valuable lessons about deceit, trust, and justice. The composition skillfully portrays these animal protagonists in a way that sparks our imagination. We can almost hear their conversation unfold as they navigate through moral dilemmas within their own world. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to La Fontaine's enduring legacy and his ability to captivate readers across generations. It invites us to reflect on human behavior while appreciating nature's wonders through its vivid portrayal of wildlife. Displayed proudly in private collections around the world, Stefano Bianchetti's interpretation breathes new life into this classic tale for all art enthusiasts to enjoy.
