EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Jean de La Fontaine's timeless fable, "The Oyster and the Litigants" beautifully illustrated by Boutet de Monvel in 1888. The image showcases a moment frozen in time, as two litigants stand before an enchanting backdrop, engaged in a dispute over an oyster. With its vibrant colors and intricate details, this colour lithograph transports us to a bygone era, evoking a sense of nostalgia for 19th-century France. The artist's skillful brushstrokes bring to life the characters' expressions and gestures, allowing us to feel their emotions and immerse ourselves in their story. La Fontaine's fables have long been cherished for their moral teachings disguised within charming narratives.

As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from our private collection, we are reminded of the enduring power of storytelling and artistry. This print serves as a testament to both La Fontaine's literary genius and Boutet de Monvel's artistic prowess.
