EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases the timeless fable of "The Farmer and the Stork" brought to life by esteemed print makers Dirk Stoop and John Ogilby in 1665. The intricate details of this engraving transport viewers back to a bygone era, where storytelling through art was cherished. In this scene, we witness the moral lesson unfold as an elderly farmer stands amidst his bountiful fields, surrounded by various farm animals. However, it is the stork perched on one leg nearby that steals our attention. Symbolizing wisdom and patience, the stork becomes a central figure in this tale. Through their masterful craftsmanship, Stoop and Ogilby expertly capture the essence of Aesop's fable: a farmer who invites his avian friend into his home for dinner but serves him food in shallow dishes. Unable to partake due to its long beak, the hungry stork watches with disappointment while other animals feast effortlessly. This poignant image reminds us of human nature's tendency towards selfishness and exclusion. It encourages reflection upon how our actions impact others around us – whether they are friends or strangers alike. As we admire this remarkable piece from Kupferstich Kabinett's collection at Arkheia Art Gallery, let us appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also its ability to convey profound messages that remain relevant even after centuries have passed.
