Notes: "The story of 'Reynard the Fox' is told briefly in the words of an old version of this wonderful tale published in England many years ago ... Goethe took the story of Reynard for the subject of a great poem [Reinecke Fuchs] and the famous painter Kaulbach has recently illustrated Goethe's version ... Herrmann Ploucquet has had the good taste to select six of these designs as models for his works"--Preface.
