This is an image of a page from an old book or manuscript. The top of the page features the text "FABLES NOUVELLES, FABLE TREIZIÈME." which translates from French to "NEW FABLES, THIRTEENTH FABLE." Below the title is an etching or engraving that depicts a scene with several figures. The main focus is on what seems to be two men, one in front of the other, in a wooded area. The first man appears to be gesturing towards the second man or to something in the distance. They are dressed in what look like classical or mythological garments. On the right side of the etching, there is a flying figure that looks like Mercury (Hermes in Greek mythology) based on the presence of a caduceus (a staff with two serpents entwined around it, which is an attribute of Mercury) and what might be interpreted as winged heels. Below the etching, we can read "Mercure et les Ombres," which means "Mercury and the Shadows," possibly indicating the title of the particular fable illustrated by the etching. The style of the artwork suggests that it is possibly from the 17th or 18th century, typical of the engravings used to illustrate literary works or fables from that era.
