Abstract

en_US Here is a good selection of Rabier's work, done by the same publisher that published his work originally. Here all of the illustrations are in color. There is a T of C at the end. 64 fables. It pays to compare and contrast this book with a similar one done in 1992 by Tallandier. That edition alternates black-and-white and colored pairs of pages, as I believe Rabier's original edition did. My new theory is that the poorer colored fables in this edition, which colors everything, are those that were not colored originally. Examples at the end of this book include Le Jardinier et Son Seigneur, Le Lion Amoureux, and La Belette Entrée dans un Grenier. The reds are pink and the browns beige. Rabier's original colors wear much better than that! Now how does this book compare with the four volumes from 1995 that reproduce Rabier's whole work?
