EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an illustration by Francisco Sancha Lengo, a renowned artist from the late 19th to early 20th century. Titled "Flying Leaf" this artwork was created around 1915 during the tumultuous period of World War I. The image depicts various elements related to the war, including symbols representing Germany and Prussia as belligerents, as well as their allies. The Spanish language is also featured prominently in the illustration, suggesting its relevance to foreign press coverage at that time. At the center of attention is a cleverly depicted fox, symbolizing cunning and slyness. The caption accompanying it reads: "Mucho sabe la zorra pero mal el que la toma" which translates to "The fox knows many things but he who catches her does so badly". This phrase serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by those who underestimate or misjudge their adversaries. Sancha y Lengo's animation skills are evident in this piece, with dynamic lines and intricate details bringing life to each element within the composition. The engraving technique used adds depth and texture to further enhance its visual impact. Overall, this historical artwork provides us with a glimpse into both artistic techniques of that era and significant events shaping global politics during World War I. It stands as a testament to Sancha Lengo's talent for capturing complex themes through his illustrations.
