A Pais chez Duchange Graveur du Roy rue St Jacques
Engraving, platemark 330 x 245mm (13 x 9½"). Trimmed to platemark; rust spot near centre; good impression.
Latona, daughter of the Titans Coeus and Phoebe, gave birth to Artemis and Apollo, children of Zeus, on Delos. Fleeing the wrath of Hera, Latona passed through Lycia. When she tried to drink from a well the local peasants stirred up mud to make the water undrinkable, so Latona turned them all into frogs, as shown here. Engraving after 'Latona and the Peasants of Lycia' by Jean Jouvenet (1649-1717), one of the most important painters of religious works in France in the late 17th and early 18th century. The painting was a royal commission for the château of Fontainebleau, executed c.1700-1.
For another engraving from the same painting see ref. 38113.
