Abstract
This issue's first page presents a half-page wood-engraving titled "Le Gland et la Citrouille." The fable's text and second image are on 272. The relationship of the two images is curious this time because there is not an animal or plant scene to be "translated" into a human application. But there is a fascinating turn in the "original" illustration. A dreamer there is pictured under a tree full of hanging pumpkins! In the larger picture, apparently an acorn has knocked off a traveler's hat as he is surrounded by huge pumpkins. This issue is sixteen pages long. L'Illustrateur des Dames et Demoiselles: Journal des Soirées de Famille seems to have been known as a "Journal de Mode." It carried items of interest to women, particularly fashion. Its masthead presents the same engraving of women gathered around sewing, piano playing and singing, reading, and painting. Pages are three columns wide.
