Calendar Cards

1995 "Illustrations de Fables de Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695)."  Thirteen calendar cards after the paintings of Claudine Suret-Canale originally published in 1990 by Vif Argent in "Fables de Jean de La Fontaine."  60 from Bertrand Cocq, Calonne Ricquart, France, August, '18.

There are thirteen cards, I believe, so that the verso of one card can match the front of another.  Thus the title-card has the title on its front and the first illustration on its verso.  The second card has the January calendar on its front and a second illustration on its verso.  The last card has December on its front and the colophon – but no illustration – on its verso.  I have just ordered Suret-Canale's Vif Argent book.
