- Abstract
- en_US This is a large (8 x 11½) book with a crumbling spine. I find the (hand-?) colored frontispiece of FS by Griset priceless. Many of the illustrations here are as distinct as I have seen them; the tendency for Griset's illustrations is that they are too dark. There are 419 numbered fables here. Besides the large and even full-page illustrations, there are many excellent smaller illustrations. Not all of the illustrations seem to me to be Griset's. Those that I do not immediately recognize as Griset's include L'Albero e gli Spini (137), Il Lupo ammalato (297), Il Pastore derubato (449), Gli Asini ed il loro ritratto (456), and Il Cacciatore, la Volpe e la Tigre (465). It looks as though this book came out in sixty segments, each costing five centavos.
