EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historical house of Jean de La Fontaine, a renowned French writer, poet, and author of fables. The image was captured in 1838 by Charles Nicolas Ransonnette and is now housed at the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of La Fontaine's residence located in Chateau-Thierry. The enchanting architecture stands tall against the backdrop of a serene landscape, evoking a sense of tranquility and inspiration that must have influenced La Fontaine's creative genius. The intricate details of the house are brought to life through Ransonnette's expert engraving technique. Every line etched with precision reveals the grandeur and elegance that once graced these walls. One cannot help but imagine La Fontaine himself ascending those stairs or strolling along those steps as he sought solace within his literary world. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history frozen in time, it serves as a reminder not only of La Fontaine's significant contributions to French literature but also pays homage to an era long gone. This print allows us to connect with both the physical space that nurtured La Fontaine's imagination and the spirit that continues to inspire generations today.
