EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the tale of Pantagruel, the giant figure from folklore and history. In this image, Panurge is seen asking Pantagruel for advice on whether he should marry. The intricate details in this artwork bring to life the rich narrative of Rabelais' famous books, published in 1532.
The characters of Pantagruel and Panurge are depicted with such vividness that one can almost hear their conversation about love and marriage. The giant stature of Pantagruel adds an element of grandeur to the scene, while Panurge's contemplative expression hints at his uncertainty about taking such a significant step.
This print is not just a visual representation but also a window into a bygone era where tales of giants and folk heroes were woven into everyday life. It serves as a reminder of the power of storytelling to transcend time and connect us with our shared history.
Courtesy of the estate of Mrs J.C.Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/Mary Evans Picture Library, this print is a testament to the enduring legacy of Rabelais' work and its ability to captivate audiences even centuries after it was first published.
