Abstract
-
en_US
Straight La Fontaine verse texts with lively part-page colored illustrations for children. Here for the first time, I think, I have seen the bird illustrated as receiving only a flesh-wound from the feathered arrow (11), even though the fable starts with the words Mortellement atteint! There is a good illustration of the hanging cat on 36. Perhaps typical of this large-format book's illustrations is that on 80-81 for the less known Le Loup et le Chien maigre. Asterisked words in the fables appear in the glossary (87-90). There is a T of C at the back. I had the sense that I had seen this artist's work before. The cover illustration has a signature something like Ariz or perhaps Ariza, and my records show that I have Mon Grand Livre de Fables d'Esope from the same publisher in 1989 with an artist whose name I guessed to be Ariza. This collection sometimes makes detective work easy!
