The Little Prince and Fox PVC Figurine
€7,50
This PVC figurine of the Little Prince and the fox is inspired by the work of Antoine de Saint-Exupery.
The Little Prince is a French-language work, the most famous by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. Published in 1943 in New York simultaneously with its English translation, it is a poetic and philosophical tale under the guise of a children's story.
The language, simple and stripped-down, because it is intended to be understood by children, is actually for the narrator the preferred vehicle of a symbolic conception of life. Each chapter recounts an encounter of the little prince that leaves him perplexed about the absurd behavior of "grown-ups." Each of these encounters can be read as an allegory.
The watercolors are part of the text and contribute to this purity of language: simplicity and depth are the main qualities of the work.
