Brian Wildsmith's Favourite Fables

Abstract

This substantial large-format paperback brings together the five fables Wildsmith did earlier, all of which are already in this collection. I am surprised to learn from the back-cover-flap that a Wildsmith Museum was opened in Japan in 1994. He is still alive in the south of France. As in the originals, the art work here is witty and exquisite. For specific comments see the five individual fable editions, all done by Oxford or Franklin Watts.
