The Lion and the Mouse

The Lion and the Mouse is one of Aesop's Fables later retold by Jean de La Fontaine (1621-1695). Willy Pogány's unpublished illustration of this fable was sold for $900 in 2009 at Bloomsbury.

    1. I'm glad you like it, Uli. Your drawing of Ferdinand the Lion is pretty terrific too!
