Aesop Illustrations: Bewick's Select Fables

You can see this 1871 edition of Bewick's Select Fables of Aesop, 1871, at the International Children's Digital Library, and you can read about Thomas Bewick's life and his career as an engraver in this Wikipedia article. Click here for more illustration slideshows. You can also see the slideshow for Bewick's Fables of Aesop, too!

Here is the Bewick slideshow (apologies to iPad users - the Flickr.com slideshows are Flash-based, but you can view the Flickr album directly if the slideshow does not work):
