EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Les Pisces et le Shepherd qui joue de la flute - The Fishes and the Shepherd who plays the flute" is a stunning engraving after Gustave Dore's original artwork. The image depicts a mesmerizing scene from Jean de La Fontaine's fables, showcasing the harmonious connection between humans and nature. In this enchanting composition, we see a young shepherd standing on the shore of a river, playing his flute with great skill. As he serenades the fishes swimming in the water, they gather around him in awe. The delicate lines of Stefano Bianchetti's engraving beautifully capture every detail of this poetic moment. The print not only showcases artistic brilliance but also reflects upon deeper themes found within French literature. It reminds us of La Fontaine's moralistic tales that often conveyed important life lessons through anthropomorphic characters like these fishes and shepherds. Through this artwork, we are transported to a serene world where music transcends boundaries and brings together different species. It serves as an exquisite reminder of our interconnectedness with nature and how art can bridge gaps between diverse beings.
