EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an illustration from the end of the 19th century, depicting a scene from Jean de La Fontaine's fable "The Town Rat and the Field Rat". The artwork, created by Stefano Bianchetti, beautifully captures the essence of this timeless tale. In this enchanting image, we see two rats engaging in a fascinating encounter. The town rat is elegantly dressed and surrounded by luxurious items such as crockery and wine glasses filled with red wine. On the other hand, the field rat appears more humble, representing a simpler way of life. The contrast between these two characters symbolizes the disparity between urban opulence and rural simplicity. Through his fables, La Fontaine often used animals to convey moral lessons or societal critiques. This particular fable explores themes of greed, materialism, and contentment.

Through its visual storytelling prowess, this print invites us to delve into deeper contemplation about our values and priorities while appreciating both artistic mastery and
