2024? "Jean de La Fontaine Looking at Characters of His Fables." Alessandro Lonati. Image Size: 8" x 5½". Total Size: 10" x 7½". Archival Matte Paper. $25.88 from Fine Art America through Etsy, Nov., '24.

La Fontaine, dapper as ever, looks at rabbit, grasshopper, stork, and tortoise, while a fox or dog emerges from the printed page as though out of the earth or a hidden well. Do I read this image wrongly, or are those characters a bit unhappy with the writer?
