Abstract
-
en_US
Bodemann#191.1. Coste's commentary had been used in several editions prior to this one. See my entries for 1790 and 1793, for example. Bodemann places the first Coste edition in 1743. The book is small to start with (4 x 6¾), and so the illustrations, which come three to a page, are quite small. The entry notes the lack of background in the outdoor scenes. The illustrations are described as presenting Darstellung durch feine, genaue Zeichnungen der Personen und Tiere mit überzeichneter Mimik und Gestik. Good examples in this second volume are Le Lion, le Loup et le Renard (49); Le Rat et l'Elephant (71); Le Mari, la Femme et le Voleur (130); Le Loup et le Renard (189); and Le Renard, le Loup et le Cheval (249). This copy is in excellent condition.
