"Renard Lies that the Rabbit Insulted One of His Children" is an etching by Dutch artist Allart van Everdingen, depicting a scene from the popular medieval fable "Reynard the Fox". The print shows the cunning fox Renard accusing the rabbit of insulting his child, a common theme of deception and manipulation within the tale. The landscape backdrop adds a sense of depth and realism, typical of Everdingen's style. This work, dating from 1650-1675, exemplifies the artist's skill in creating detailed and expressive animal portraits within a captivating narrative context.
