Abstract

This is a pleasant sixteen-page pamphlet, about 6¾ x 9. It includes eight full-page colored illustrations, generally in the style of Epinal. Only some portions of these illustrations are colored in. There are, e.g., about four colors at work on the cover: green, blue, yellow, and red. The rest is left in black-and-white. The cover is one of the pamphlet's best illustrations. I have never before seen this fable's lamb using a little pitcher to scoop up water along the shoreline. The poem for the cover's WL is apparently never presented. Each text tends to be on the verso of its illustration. Among the better illustrations are Le Cygne et le Cuisinier on 7 and FC on the back cover. The purple clusters for FG on 10 are visually strong. Individual pages with their headers confirm the reading Fables de Lafontaine without a space after the first two letters of the third word.
