1890? Three extra-long colored magic lantern slides showing La Fontaine's fables. Two fables per slide. 10½" x 2½".
Again, the color work in these slides is strong, even after all this time. The two titles are in cursive in a text-box to the left, and the two fable scenes to the right play out almost as two aspects of one scene. Beautiful craftsmanship! And very fragile!
