Fables

We have been friends with the fables of I. A. Krylov since childhood. As schoolchildren, we learned by heart about the monkey and the glasses, the grasshopper and the ant, and in adult life, we happily quote: “The cuckoo praises... the rooster…” “You read these works and never cease to admire their wisdom, sharpness, and some special folk flavor,” said the animal artist Evgeny Rachyov. “With great interest, I delve into the texts again, getting acquainted with special literary studies and commentaries, with the memories of the writer's contemporaries who understood perfectly whom a particular fable was aimed at.” This time, the artist dressed the animals in costumes from Krylov's time.
