The Servant Justified (La Servante justifiée)
This print illustrates the opening scene of a famous licentious tale by Jean de la Fontaine. A flighty husband seduces a pretty serving girl as she was gathering flowers in his garden, while a neighbour observes their moves from her window, ready to report to his wife. The engraver chose to depict their encounter, brewing with amorous tension, set in a lush vegetal alcove.
