Abstract

Very nice workmanship. Isolating the text and moral in one quadrant is successful here, as is Linton's moral: The story depends on the teller." As the artist's illustration shows, the tiles appear best when given the appropriate small space between their edges. Fables show up in so many places!

Abstract

Beautiful woodworking. Simple figures. Lovely grain. And a great feel in the hand! Aesop lives!

Abstract

How lovely to see artists taking their inspiration from fables! These are sprightly, lively colored prints. My favorite is “Town Mouse,” with the cork popping off of the champagne bottle before the two mice in their high silk hats. CM presents a nicely contrasting picture of dress, surroundings, table cloth, and what is offered for the meal. I am surprised not to find an artist named.
