Rappelé en son pays, il abandonne son projet d'édition. Charles Pinot Duclos concourt alors aux côtés de Caylus, Voisenon et Surgères pour composer une nouvelle inspirée des dix dessins. Son conte Acajou et Zirphile aurait été jugé le meilleur et publié avec les gravures en 1744, inspirant dès cette même année à Charles-Simon Favart un opéra-comique promis à un grand succès. Complexe, un tantinet licencieuse, l'histoire met en scène un mauvais génie et une méchante fée en rébellion, décidés à entraver les premiers émois amoureux de deux jouvenceaux.

Called back to his country, he abandoned his publishing project. Charles Pinot Duclos then competes alongside Caylus, Voisenon and Surgères to compose a short story inspired by the ten drawings. His tale Acajou et Zirphile would have been judged the best and published with the engravings in 1744, inspiring Charles-Simon Favart that same year to write a comic opera that was destined to be a great success. Complex, a bit licentious, the story features an evil genius and an evil fairy in rebellion, determined to hinder the first love affairs of two younglings.Dimensions sheet : 31.0 X 23.0 cmDimensions plate : 19.4 x 13 cm
