EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving, titled "LE CERF ET LA VIGNE - The deer and the vine" we are transported into the world of Jean de La Fontaine's fables. Created by Gustave Dore, a renowned artist of his time, this print beautifully captures the essence of one of La Fontaine's timeless tales. The image depicts a majestic deer standing amidst a lush grapevine. As we gaze upon this scene, we can't help but be drawn to the intricate details that Dore has masterfully etched onto paper. The delicate lines bring life to every leaf on the vine and every strand of fur on the deer's body. This artwork serves as a reminder of how nature intertwines with human folly in La Fontaine's fables. It tells us a story about greed and desire, where the deer is tempted by the sweet grapes hanging just out of reach. Through this allegory, La Fontaine teaches us valuable lessons about contentment and appreciating what we already have. As we admire this piece from Stefano Bianchetti's private collection, it is impossible not to feel an air of nostalgia for classic French literature. This engraving stands as a testament to both La Fontaine's enduring legacy and Dore's artistic brilliance. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply appreciate thought-provoking imagery, "LE CERF ET LA VIGNE - The deer and the vine" will undoubtedly captivate your imagination with its rich
