This rare and very beautiful Amsterdam edition is printed two years after the monumental first edition from Paris, which was commissioned by Ferniers G\u00e9neraux, and which is very scarce and sought after. This is the most beautiful and well-executed of the re-impressions (Paris, 1762 (-without vignettes), Amsterdam, 1764 and London, 1764). -„Celle d’Amsterdam, 1764, 2 vol. in-8. fig. copi\u00e9es sur celles de l’\u00e9dition de 1762, est assez belle.“ (Brunet III:760). The illustrations of this edition are excellent and copied from the beautiful first edition“ many of them are engraved and signed by C. Boily, and all are after Eisen. Most of the vignettes are after Choffard. The portrait of La Fontaine is engraved by Macret after Ficquet. „Cette imitation de l’\u00e9dition des fermiers g\u00e9n\u00e9raux est assez jolie. Le portrait de La Fontaine est tant\u00f4t grav\u00e9 par Savaret, et tant\u00f4t par Macret, suivant les exemplaires.“ (Cohen, p. 310).The illustrations of this work are considered Eisen’s main work, the book is considered one of the greatest works of rococo book-illustration, and it has greatly inspired later tradition in this field. – Occasionally some minor spotting, but allover clean, with wide margens, two edges uncut, beautifully bound by Blanchetiere-Bretault.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":29061,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[152,143,43,32,914],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-29059","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-erotica","product_cat-francais","product_cat-illustrierte-buecher","product_cat-literatur","product_cat-zvab","first","instock","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/antiquariat-steinbach.com\/rarebooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/29059","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/antiquariat-steinbach.com\/rarebooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/antiquariat-steinbach.com\/rarebooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/antiquariat-steinbach.com\/rarebooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/29059\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29060,"href":"https:\/\/antiquariat-steinbach.com\/rarebooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/29059\/revisions\/29060"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/antiquariat-steinbach.com\/rarebooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29061"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/antiquariat-steinbach.com\/rarebooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29059"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/antiquariat-steinbach.com\/rarebooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=29059"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/antiquariat-steinbach.com\/rarebooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=29059"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/antiquariat-steinbach.com\/rarebooks\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=29059"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
