Gustave Dore's antique prints representing Fontaine's Fables.
Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695) was a french poet, whose FABLES rank among the masterpieces of world literature. In his own time La Fontaine was considered a vagabond, dreamer, and lover of pleasure. A rustic character, he never was a real courtier and drifted happily from one patron to another. Because of the universal nature of his fables, La Fontaine's poems about industrious ants, brave lions, and carefree grasshoppers are still widely read.
