Abstract

en_US
See my comments on the first of the three volumes. This volume contains Books V-VIII. I like the outrage in the two servant girls in The Old Woman and the Two Servant Girls (V 6) on 21! The Horse and the Ass (VI 16) on 72 has a certain grizzliness, as we see the bare bones of the now-skinned dead ass! The Curé and the Dead Man (VII 11) on 112 is unusually dramatic: are we seeing the casket drop out of the carriage onto the priest? I am not sure that I have ever seen the wolf's skin actually applied to the lion, as here, in The Lion, the Wolf, and the Fox (VIII 3) on 138. These are some of the easiest pages I have found for seeing watermarks. Unfortunately, a date does not seem to be part of the watermark here. T of C for this volume at the end. As with each of these volumes, the box is broken, but the portfolio cover remains intact.
