It is not uncommon that Charles, my Ardèche butcher, who likes to cut me the rib steak or the rib on the bone - "the fiorentina" as they say in Tuscany - and at the same time the flank steak, laments from the fact that I seem to despise the "butcher's leaf" in my still lifes of which he is, I must say, as good a customer as[...]
It is not uncommon that Charles, my Ardèche butcher, who likes to cut me the rib steak or the rib on the bone - "the fiorentina" as they say in Tuscany - and at the same time the flank steak, laments from the fact that I seem to despise the "butcher's leaf" in my still lifes of which he is, I must say, as good a customer as I am of his butcher shop. Yesterday, around midday, he lent me this "sheet" which comes to him from a distant cousin by inviting me to make him an image so that he offers it to said cousin nostalgic for the time he was selling. in the rules of its art the calves, cows, and pigs of which, according to Jean de la Fontaine, the beautiful Perrette dreamed while carrying her jug of milk. Non è raro che Charles, il mio macellaio dell'Ardèche, a cui piace tagliarmi the entrecote o la costata con l'osso - "la fiorentina" come si dice in Toscana - e allo stesso tempo "la bavette", si lamenta del fatto che a lui sembra che disdegno la "foglia del macellaio" nelle mie still life di cui è, devo dire, a buon cliente like lo sono io della sua macelleria. Ieri, verso mezzogiorno, mi ha prestato questa "Butcher's leaf" che gli arrived da un lontano cugino invitandomi a fargli un'immagine per offrirla al detto cugino nostalgico del tempo dove tagliava nelle regole della sua arte calves, cows and pigs cheeks, secondo Jean de la Fontaine, la bella Perrette sognava mentre trasportava il latte. NB: In French, the expression "carve the flank" signifies "chiacchierare, discuss", che non ha nulla a che vedere con il pezzo di manzo che si chiama "bavette"
