This enchanting 19th-century engraving captures the whimsical world of childhood education with its depiction of the letters M, N, and O. The intricate details of each letter showcase a menagerie of animals - from playful marmots to a cozy nest and a majestic orangutan swinging through the trees.
The print is part of "Le livre d'images, Nouveau alphabet ou Alphabet pour petits garcons", an album designed to help young boys learn their ABCs in a fun and engaging way. Created by editor Emile Guerin and featuring drawings by Hercules Catenacci and Adolphe-Francois Pannemaker, this educational tool combines artistry with practicality.
