In-folio (33,7 x 26,5 cm). (32) pp. : soft card covers, the first lithographed in color, a rooster above the red title, the second of gray cardboard, bound in Japanese style with a cordon. Unique and uncommon edition. Remarkable animal primer drawn by the Danish painter and engraver Ernst Hansen (1892-1968). Lithographs with broad strokes and stylized black flat tints. Certainly the only book for children by the artist, his black lines being generally the technique of his female nudes and his nature motifs from his Arctic expeditions with Rasmussen.
