EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fontainebleau Forest: Le gamin a l orvet" transports us to the enchanting world of nature in 1890. Taken by renowned French artist Auguste Louis Lepere, this wood engraving captures the essence of childhood innocence amidst the beauty of Fontainebleau Forest. In this image, we see a young boy, known as "Le gamin" engrossed in his exploration of the forest. With an orvet (a type of lizard) delicately held in his hands, he appears both curious and fascinated by the wonders that surround him. The intricate details captured through Lepere's masterful engraving technique bring life to every leaf and branch within the frame. Originally published in Revue Illustree between 1887-90, this particular print is part of a bound volume containing 34 exquisite engravings. Measuring just 5.8 x 5.8 cm, it may be small in size but holds immense artistic value. Lepere's ability to evoke emotions through his art is evident here as he invites us to appreciate not only the natural world but also our own sense of wonderment and curiosity. This timeless piece serves as a reminder that even amidst our busy lives, there is always room for exploration and awe-inspiring moments like those experienced by "Le gamin" in Fontainebleau Forest over a century ago.
