EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "La Clochette" from Jean La Fontaine's renowned work, "Tales et nouvelles en vers". Created by an unknown artist in the 18th century, this piece is part of a private collection. The image depicts a young girl, possibly a courtesan, beautifully engraved with intricate details that bring her to life. The engraving captures the essence of French literature and libertinage during that era. It portrays an encounter filled with poetry and fear as the girl engages with a courtier. This scene reflects the fable-like nature of La Fontaine's storytelling style. Through this artwork, we catch a glimpse into the complexities of society at that time. The presence of both bourgeoisie and eroticism hints at the contrasting elements within French culture during the 17th century. Giancarlo Costa has skillfully captured this historical masterpiece through his lens, preserving its beauty for generations to come. As we admire this print, let us appreciate not only its artistic value but also its significance in representing an important period in French history.
