Abstract

en_US This seems to me to be a smaller later edition of what is described in Bodemann #355.1. The engravings here are frequent and helpful for understanding what is going on in Florian's fables. There is an illustration about every six pages. Metzner in Bodemann describes a contrast between the two artists. Die beiden Zeichner ohne Angleichung der Bildkonzeption: Lacaille mit aus Untersicht gezeichneten Figuren in voller Bildhöhe; Besnier mit aus Übersicht gezeichneten, meist eine Gruppe im Bildmittelgrund formierenden Figuren, nicht in voller Bildhöhe und mit mehr Kulissen. It seems to me that in this volume the illustrations of Lacaille vastly outnumber those of Besnier. The latter's signature in the bottom right is usually cut down to a few letters.
