EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an enchanting illustration titled "Les quiproquos" from the book "Tales et nouvelles en vers" by Jean La Fontaine, published in 1776. The artwork, created by Pierre Philippe Choffard, beautifully captures the essence of French literature and folklore. In this scene, we are transported to a world of intrigue and miscommunication. The engraving depicts a young woman surrounded by a sense of mystery and sensuality. Her expression suggests that she is caught up in a web of confusion or perhaps engaged in an amusing misunderstanding with those around her. The artist's attention to detail is evident as every line and curve brings life to the characters portrayed. Choffard skillfully portrays the bourgeoisie setting with exquisite precision, showcasing his mastery over his craft. Jean La Fontaine's work was known for its exploration of human nature through fables and tales. This particular illustration hints at themes such as eroticism and libertinage prevalent during that era. Giancarlo Costa has expertly captured this timeless piece of art, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even today. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the rich literary history that France holds dear and how it continues to inspire artists across generations.
