EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Fable of the Goat and the Wolf" created by Dirk Stoop and John Ogilby in 1665, we are transported into a world of fables and moral lessons. The illustration vividly depicts a scene from Aesop's timeless tale, where a cunning wolf attempts to deceive his prey. The image unfolds with an unsuspecting nanny goat standing at the entrance of her cozy stall. Dressed in luxurious goat fur, she innocently opens the door without realizing that danger lurks just beyond. In an instant, a pack of ferocious wolves pounce upon the herd of goats, ready to attack their defenseless prey. Dirk Stoop's masterful artistry brings this fable to life with intricate details and expressive characters. Each brushstroke captures the tension between predator and prey as well as the vulnerability of those who fall victim to deception. This print serves as a powerful reminder that appearances can be deceiving and that one must always remain vigilant against those who seek to exploit our trust. Quint Lox skillfully curates this piece from Liszt Collection, allowing us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also its enduring relevance in teaching valuable life lessons. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, let us reflect on our own lives and consider how we can navigate through a world filled with both beauty and treachery while staying true to ourselves.
