Abstract

en_US I first learned of this publication by seeing it in the Victoria and Albert Museum. I tried to purchase it subsequently through Schoenhof's in Cambridge. They came back with the answer that it was not for sale because of copyright considerations, so I asked if they could give me the name of someone at the Rupertinum. I wrote and asked about the possibility of an exchange. Six weeks later this lovely edition appeared in my mail! It is hard to reproduce the liveliness of Chagall's originals, I think. I was much more stunned by the vivacity of the originals in the V & A than I am by these reproductions. But until I can find and finance an original set, this is a wonderful second-best! Some of my favorites on this trip through have been FG (XXXV), 2P (LIII), Die Alte und die beiden Mägde (LVI), Der Löwe und der Jäger (LXV), and Die junge Witwe (LXXII). I can find no indication whose German translation of La Fontaine is used here. This book represents a real catch for the collection!
