EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable scene from Hendrick van Alcmars Renard The Fox, an iconic fable of the 17th century. In this third state of four, Allart van Everdingen skillfully depicts the moment when the stork comes to the rescue of a wolf in distress. Set against a rustic woodland backdrop, this engraving showcases Everdingen's mastery in capturing intricate details and conveying emotions through his art. The image portrays a powerful concept of compassion and assistance as the stork delicately removes a bone from the wolf's throat. The contrasting colors of black and white add depth to each character's body, highlighting their roles in this extraordinary encounter. With its beak carefully positioned near the wolf's mouth, the stork symbolizes hope and salvation amidst adversity. This piece not only exemplifies Dutch regionalism but also reflects rural life during that era. It transports viewers back to Amsterdam in the 17th century, immersing them in an enchanting world where animals possess human-like qualities. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this photograph serves as a testament to Albert van Everdingen's artistic legacy. Its presence reminds us of our rich heritage while showcasing nature's beauty intertwined with folklore narratives.
