Abstract

en_US
This is a brochure of ten pages, starting from the front inside-cover and reaching to the back inside-cover. As with Zaucher's other work, Recueil de Fables de La Fontaine (1950?), there is a curious alternation of colored pages roughly in the style of Rabier and of duochrome pages using orange and black pigments. Here the cover presents a good compilation of stories, including MM, TH, OF; the whole is marred slightly by some white crayoning. Is this the same composite picture I noted in that other edition? Inside we find TH, Le Loup devenu Berger, MM, BF, GGE, OF, and GA. The first full-color illustration goes to TH and features pictures of a seated bunny pulling petals off of a flower and of a tortoise standing expectantly with an arm around the finishing pole marked by two radishes. Further full-color illustrations include a two-page spread for MM and one page for OF. There is one last smaller image of MM on the back cover. I think I will be finding more of these heavy-paper, large-format pamphlets of La Fontaine every time I get back to Paris. A number of them seem to have been done by Touret. This one has a small mark at the lower left on the front cover: Série 21 No. 4 G.
