EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Les jeunes lionceaux recoivent la benediction du roi lion" we are transported to a scene of majestic beauty and significance. Illustrated by JJ Granville, the vignettes depict a heartwarming moment where young lion cubs receive the blessing of their king. The intricate engravings, signed by Breviere, come from an extraordinary work called "Voyage d'un lion d'Afrique à Paris" written by Honore de Balzac in his collection "Scenes de la vie privee et publique des animaux". Published in 1842 under the direction of P. -J. Stahl (a pseudonym for Pierre-Jules Hetzel), these contemporary studies of animal behavior provide us with a glimpse into both private and public life. The attention to detail and artistic skill showcased in this piece is truly remarkable. As we admire this print from Jean Duvallon's private collection, we can't help but be captivated by the tenderness displayed between the regal lion and its offspring. It reminds us that even within nature's most powerful creatures lies a deep sense of familial love and protection. This photograph not only serves as a visual delight but also offers insight into our own human condition through its portrayal of animal society. It is a testament to the enduring power of art to transport us across time and space, allowing us to connect with stories that transcend generations.
