An etching by Claude Gillot, 'The Lynx and the Mole' illustrates a fable with fine lines and understated elegance, typical of early 18th-century French printmaking.
This etching by Claude Gillot (1673-1722) illustrates a fable, as indicated by the text above the image: 'Fable Quatriesme' (Fable the Fourth). Gillot, a French painter, printmaker, and decorator, is known for his illustrations and theatrical designs. The print depicts a lynx standing over a mole in a vaguely pastoral setting. In the background, figures on horseback and on foot populate a simplified, almost stage-like environment. The composition is framed by text above and below the image, suggesting it was part of a larger publication. Gillot's style is characterised by its fine lines and attention to detail, evident in the lynx's fur and the landscape's textures. The print's monochrome palette and delicate execution are typical of early 18th-century French printmaking. The overall effect is one of understated elegance and narrative clarity, reflecting the artistic tastes of the period.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
