- Description is exactly "1913 "L'Illustration" magazine for February 8, 1913, includes a full-page insert (page 117) as it reports on elements of, I believe, the "Balkan Wars." The full-page insert offers a photograph of a mule and two riders in Turkestan who illustrate MSA. The caption retells the fable. €12 from journauxanciens through Ebay, Feb., '
I agree with the editors that it is rare that one finds an uncontrived human situation perfectly illustrating a fable. I am grateful that the French have loved La Fontaine's fables so dearly and followed them so assiduously!"
