Abstract
I tried a quick search to see when Artima flourished. Apparently in 1952 it became a major publisher of comics, Bandes Dessinées. J.A. Dupuich even did some art work for at least one of these. I am guessing that this volume comes from the earlier years, between Artima's founding in 1943 and its comics years. This is a particularly clean large-format book of 32 pages. The title-page, like the cover, gives a visualization of the fables that appear here. The fables include: Flying Fish; The Monkey and the Magic Lantern; The Young Man and the Old Man; The Dog and the Cat; The Child and the Mirror; The Nightingale and the Prince; Ape, Monkey, and Nut; Le Vacher et le Garde-Chasse; The Cricket; The Two Cats; The Blind and the Lame; The White Elephant; The Cat and the Rats; and The Two Travellers. Good selection of fables and spirited illustrations. The illustrations for Dog and Cat are a good, lively example of the enjoyable illustrations here (10-11). Canvas binding.
