Jean de la Fontaine (1621-1695) was one of the most widely-read French poets of the 17th century. Known for his Fables, he explored a traditional style of French verse dating back to the Middle Ages.

His influence on the French language today is reflected by his prestigious reception into the Académie Française, along with the many statues, pictures and depictions of Fontaine on coins, medals and stamps.
