Abstract
Ten years ago, I found one volume (Volume IV) of this work by Olshausen-Schönberger and I admired it. As I said in reporting on it then, it is one step from being a fable book, but it is too delightful to leave out of the collection. Animals here are an effective means for putting social types in their place. The wit and skill make one think of Grandville. Among the most notable and fable-like illustrations here are Der Unerbittliche (apparently a customs officer, 5), Der neue Hut (7), Scheiden tut weh! (10), Der Mäcenas im Atelier (12), Der Galan (15), Besser so einer -- als gar keiner! (17), Das Opfer der Wohltätigkeit (25), Der Besuch der Erbtante (32), and Schimpf' so viel Du magst -- ich bin von Natur Dickhäuter! (35). Obviously, I like this work!
