Fables de La Fontaine

Abstract

Full text of the fables. I find that I have another edition by the same publisher, editor, and artist with more illustrations. See my comments on it under 1910? There I had picked out six images as not in the Grandville tradition. Curiously, those six turn out--with the addition of I 16--to be the very images included here. Those that are here include: a frontispiece portrait of La Fontaine; La Mort et le Boucheron (I 16); LM (II 11); L'Ane et le petit Chien (IV 5); Les Médecins (V 12); MM (VII 10); Le Savetier et le Financier (VIII 2); and Le Vieillard et les trois jeunes Hommes (XI 8). The best of these for me are VI 5 and VIII 2. There is an AI at the back.
