Les Fables de La Fontaine

Abstract

Here is a clean copy of a book already in the collection. The copy already in the collection is boxed with a CD and the pre-title-page shows the name of a young previous owner. It was bought from Marie Gervais in May of 2015 for $25. As I wrote then, Thibaudier's approach to the fables is fresh and fun-filled. The three panels on 18 mark well three stages of the hare's approach to starting this race. The frog actually uses a bellows to blow herself up (20-21). Again on 31, contrasting pictures present the fox and stork of FS well. We can see the reflection of the crying milkmaid in her spilled milk (36). Eighteen fables, as the beginning T of C shows. There is a pair of slight tears on 19.
