Abstract

en_US
This is a hardbound copy of a paperbound book brought into the collection in 2003. It adds a title-page, and the over background is yellow-brown rather than whie. As I wrote then, two black-and-white illustrations bracket fifteen full-page colored illustrations. TH (14) is not only one of the liveliest illustrations. It is also the same illustration found on a Pellerin table plate in the collection (https://www.creighton.edu/aesop/artifacts/tableware/specifickindsoftableware/plates/societefrancaisedeporcelaine). I am also familiar with the Pellerin illustration used here for "Le Corbeau Voulant Imiter l'Aigle" (17). The special attraction of Pellerin illustrations has something to do, I believe, with large areas of strong, bright, simple colors. The cover presents GA in the human fashion so frequent in the French tradition.
