Original Description
Martin Aubée's On Ne S'avise Jamais De Tout - D'après Les Contes De La Fontaine is a whimsical yet sophisticated interpretation of Jean de La Fontaine's timeless fables. The painting exudes a playful Baroque-inspired energy, blending Aubée's signature theatricality with delicate Rococo flourishes. Rich jewel tones contrast against creamy backgrounds, while dynamic brushwork brings anthropomorphized animals and human figures to life with exaggerated expressions. Created during Aubée's mid-career period (1960s-70s), this work reflects his unique position straddling modern illustration traditions and Old Master techniques. Its importance lies in revitalizing literary-inspired art during the Pop Art era, offering an intellectual counterpoint to mass media aesthetics through layered symbolism drawn from 17th-century French literature. The meticulous details reward close viewing while maintaining immediate visual appeal.
For interior placement, this artwork shines as a statement piece in studies or executive offices, where its literary heritage complements wood-paneled walls and leather furnishings. The ideal setting would feature warm ambient lighting at 45-degree angles to enhance its gilded details, positioned at 57-60 inches from floor to center. Choose wall colors from its secondary palette - perhaps a muted terracotta or sage green - rather than competing with the dominant cobalt and crimson hues. A substantial 24x36 inch frame with modest neoclassical molding would balance the composition's dynamism without overwhelming smaller rooms. Pair it with sleek modernist furniture for delightful tension, or embrace full Baroque revival with carved walnut pieces. In commercial spaces, it anchors reception areas when accompanied by clean-lined benches in coordinating metallic finishes, creating a dialogue between centuries.
