EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an enchanting scene from the renowned literary work "Tales et nouvelles en vers" by Jean La Fontaine. Created in 1776, this illustration by P. P. Choffard transports us into a world of imagination and wonder. In this particular image titled "Le petit Chien qui shooue de l argent et des stones" we witness a small dog who possesses a remarkable ability to produce both money and precious gemstones. The intricate details of the engraving bring the story to life, as we see the dog surrounded by curious onlookers, including members of the bourgeoisie. The artwork beautifully captures the essence of La Fontaine's fables, which often serve as moral lessons disguised within charming narratives. This particular tale explores themes such as wealth, greed, and the consequences that come with them. Pierre Philippe Choffard's skillful craftsmanship is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. The composition exudes elegance and sophistication while maintaining a sense of whimsy that perfectly complements La Fontaine's storytelling style. As we gaze upon this exquisite piece from eGiancarlo Costa's private collection, we are reminded of France's rich literary heritage and its enduring impact on art and culture worldwide. This print serves as a testament to both La Fontaine's timeless tales and Choffard's artistic prowess – an exquisite fusion that continues to captivate audiences even centuries later.
