Three broadsides from Imagerie Nouvelle

Description

1900? Three broadsides from Imagerie Nouvelle, presenting TB; "The Ass and Lapdog"; and "The Ass Carrying Relics." €9.90 each from bdsetrevuessympas through Ebay, Feb., '23.

As I have remarked about one of the bound versions of Imagerie Nouvelle broadsides, they seem a poor man's Pellerin. Each poster has its own way of integrating text and images. Is that a tabernacle being carried by the ass attended by a monk? As elsewhere, I have questions about coloring of some figures, like that of the ass approaching his seated owner. All three of these sheets bear seven old staple impressions, curiously unevenly spaced. I presume they once were portions of a published album of broadsides like the other in our collection.
