EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Fable of the lion, the ranger and his daughter" artist Dirk Stoop brings to life a timeless tale from Aesop's fables. The scene depicts a dramatic encounter between a fearsome lion, a wise ranger, and his beautiful daughter. As we gaze at the illustration, our eyes are drawn to the majestic lion sitting at a table, addressing the ranger with an air of authority. The tension in the room is palpable as he asks for permission to marry the ranger's daughter. With bated breath, we watch as the ranger contemplates this unusual request. The intricate details in Stoop's artwork showcase not only his mastery but also John Ogilby's skillful storytelling through imagery. We notice that both teeth and nails have been removed from the once ferocious beast before us – rendering him toothless and harmless. The composition beautifully captures contrasting emotions; fear mixed with curiosity dances across each character's face. Willingness shines through as we witness how love can transform even those who were once feared by all. Quint Lox has expertly captured this historical piece from Liszt Collection, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and significance anew. Let this enchanting print serve as a reminder of how compassion can change lives and rewrite destinies – even for those considered predators in nature’s grand tapestry.
