7 original watercolor paintings of Aesop’s fables by LouLette Sablon, 1965

 File — Box: CFC Art Box 3
Identifier: CFC2021.0526.1
Abstract

It was hard for me to believe that the whole lot of originals was selling for this low price. I find these watercolors lovely! LouLette Sablon was born on July 16, 1897 in France. She was an actress, known for To Catch a Thief (1955), Around the World in Eighty Days (1956) and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953). She died on October 21, 1970 in Los Angeles County, California, USA.I bet that she would have said that she was painting not Aesop but La Fontaine.

Metal engraving of Lion and Mouse, 2015

 Item — Box: CFC Art Box 3
Identifier: CFC2020.0112.2
Abstract

This lion seems the perfect image of patience. The many cords of the net structure the scene well against the curves of the hills, the horizontal line of the plain, and the vertical lines of the trees. This engraving refused to be scanned well. I doubt that the photograph does it justice.

Metal engraving of Tortoise and Hare, 2015

 Item — Box: CFC Art Box 3
Identifier: CFC2020.0112.1
Abstract

The position of the two heads and the two bodies is well done. The body of the hare half-surrounds that of the tortoise. Is the hare lying still? The tortoise is certainly not! The tortoise looks up at the hard. Is that a surprised look by the hare? A wary one? Well done!

Abstract Here was one of two surprises in a blisteringly hot weekend foray to the Marché aux Puces! "Daniel et Lilli" is basically a button shop on the first floor of the Marché Dauphine. I did find buttons, but I found more brooches and drawings. The helpful attendant just kept bringing me more things! These lovely finds made up for an otherwise not-so-successful day. I enjoy the wolf and the lamb here, but I wonder what the wolf holds in his left paw. Again, what a lovely "save" from the fate...

I did find buttons, but I found more brooches and drawings. The helpful attendant just kept bringing me more things! These lovely finds made up for an otherwise not-so-successful day.
