Basni (Russian)

Abstract

This is one of the better Krylov presentations I have seen, particularly because of the colored illustrations. These begin with the fine Quartet on the cover, continue with the title-page's FG, and then continue with The Monkey and the Spectacles; OF; WL; The Lion and the Leopard; The Wolf in the Kennel; The Pike and theCat; The Ass and the Nightingale; The Elephant and the Pug; The Swan, the Pike, and the Lobster; The Monkey and the Mirror; The Pig under the Oak; and The Pike. The illustrations in the booklet have a clever interpretative silhouette underneath of humans: Are they doing what the fable talks about? There is a T of C at the end.
