Cabinet des fées, ou, Collection choisie des contes des fées et autre contes merveilleux
Cabinet des fées is a collection of fairy tales compiled by Charles-Joseph Mayer, published in Geneva in 1785 for a French-reading audience. Its pictures are small black-and-white engravings: a woodcut-style rustic cottage under trees, a formal courtly scene of a lady and gentleman with a cottage doorway, and a marbled endpaper in green, red and ochre that a designer could borrow for pattern and texture.
