EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Renard, 1850" is a remarkable piece of art created by Louis Simon Lassalle. Measuring 18x12 cm, this print showcases the intricate details of a fox and a chicken in an educational setting. The artwork is part of the renowned "Alphabet du Jardin des Plantes" series, illustrated by Lassalle for Mrs. Louise Leneveux's publication. This particular image was featured alongside 16 lithographs drawn by Lassalle and numerous vignettes on wood. Published in Paris in 1850 by Mrs Veuve Louis Janet, Libraire-publisher at rue Saint-Jacques, this book aimed to educate readers about various animals found in the garden. In this specific engraving, we see a vixen named Renard sharing a meal with her prey - a hen from the farmyard. The scene beautifully captures both the natural history aspect as well as the predator-prey relationship within nature. Lassalle's attention to detail shines through his meticulous engravings that bring these animals to life on paper. The fine lines and shading enhance their textures while creating depth within the composition. This enchanting artwork serves as not only an aesthetic delight but also an educational tool for those interested in zoology or natural sciences during the early nineteenth century. It transports us back to a time when such illustrations were valued for their ability to convey knowledge and inspire curiosity about our animal counterparts.
