About this Item
1846 FABLES of Jean de FONTAINE French Literature Aesop Illustrated 24 Plates Jean de la Fontaine was without question, the most widely read 17th-century fabulist, and perhaps could be rivaled only by Aesop himself. He wrote for what he intended to be a sophisticated French audience; however, his stories provided important lessons on morality for children and adults alike. This 1846 edition was illustrated by artists Jules David, Tony Johannot, Victor Adam, and F. Grenier et Shaal. It also features historical notes by Charles A. Walckenaer.
