EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "The Lion and Reynard" we are transported to a whimsical world where animals take on human-like qualities. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases their incredible talent for storytelling through art. At the center of the composition stands a majestic lion, exuding power and authority with his regal mane and piercing gaze. By his side is Reynard, a cunning fox known for his sly nature. The dynamic between these two characters is palpable as they engage in what appears to be an intense conversation or negotiation. Adding further charm to the scene is a mischievous squirrel perched on a nearby branch, observing the interaction with curiosity. Its presence injects an element of playfulness into this otherwise serious encounter. This enchanting illustration was originally created as part of Chatterbox magazine in 1892, capturing readers' imaginations with its rich imagery and narrative potential. Now preserved within a private collection, it continues to captivate viewers with its intricate details and timeless appeal. "The Lion and Reynard" serves as a testament to the enduring power of visual storytelling throughout history. As we gaze upon this remarkable engraving from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of our own capacity for imagination and wonderment – just like those who first encountered it over a century ago.
