- Abstract
- en_US Here is an excellent reproduction of a book first produced by Plon, Nourrit & Cie in 1888. It has a beautiful green cloth cover with a pasted-on procession of La Fontaine leading animals and even two pots. Inside there are the twenty-six fables on 48 pages that one finds in the original. As I mentioned on the earliest printings of this book, the illustrations' colors are delightful. The best of them may be FM (26) and WC (47). Boutet de Monvel is rightly highly praised by Arbuthnot and Sutherland. The pictorial T of C at the beginning is nicely done.
