O lisce a capu a dalsi Ezopovy bajky

Abstract

Here are twenty-five fables on 53 pages, as the closing T of C shows. Is that God who is pictured laughing over the monkey mother on 19? A strength of this nicely colored edition is the use of multiple images to tell a story, not just in that fable's many images gathered together, but also the paired images for TMCM on 43. Then again, in "The Stag and the Dogs" (51), we have a dominant image of the caught stag covering three-quarters of the page; it might be only a little later that we notice the oval of reflecting water above this image. This is another lovely find from several days in the Czech Republic in summer of 2019!
