EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving from the 19th century alphabet book, "Letter R: Reindeer, Raisin, Rake, Fox". Created by Charles Unsinger for Alphonse Lemerre, a renowned bookseller-publisher in Paris, this piece is a true testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of that era. The intricate details of the engraving are brought to life through Alfred Prunaire's skillful hand. The letter 'R' takes center stage as it intertwines with four distinct elements - a majestic reindeer, plump raisins dangling from a grapevine, a sturdy rake resting against them all while an elegant fox gracefully observes from afar. Measuring at 31x22cm and comprising 36 pages in total, this remarkable work is part of a private collection. Its historical significance lies not only in its artistic value but also in its representation of childhood nostalgia and learning through visual aids like alphabets. The image captures the essence of France during that time period - rich with European charm and agricultural traditions. It serves as a reminder of the diverse flora and fauna found within French landscapes. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this piece through their photography expertise. This photograph allows us to appreciate every delicate line and stroke made by Prunaire over 150 years ago. It invites us into an enchanting world where letters come alive with vibrant imagery – truly capturing the magic of education intertwined with artistry.
