EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating illustration captures a whimsical moment from the children's book "Les animaux en train de plaisir". In this enchanting scene, M. Latrompe, an anthropomorphized elephant, playfully crushes the tail of M. Lion, who responds with a comical shout of "peacock". The artwork was created by G. H. Thompson and published in 1885 by Hachette et Cie in Paris. The image is part of the Selva Collection and showcases the artist's skillful use of lighting and vibrant colors to bring the animal characters to life. A diverse cast of creatures can be seen surrounding M. Latrompe and M. Lion, including a giraffe, turtle, rabbit, tiger, monkey, bear, heron, and more. This delightful illustration transports viewers into a world where animals engage in lively dances and revelries under lantern-lit skies. It evokes a sense of joyous celebration as these charming characters come together for a festive party. With its rich detail and imaginative storytelling elements rooted in French literature and folklore traditions from the 19th century (19e siècle), this print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an intriguing glimpse into historical children's literature.
