Description
English: A collection of 1679 illustrations to the plays of Molière formed by H.S.Ashbee: the series of loose prints consists of various series of book illustrations and other plates, almost all by French artists. The sets have been broken up and re-arranged by title of the play illustrated, while the plays themselves are arranged in alphabetical order; the prints are of different sizes and techniques, and are listed in blocks of each play in the acquisition register and not individually.

Notes

For Ashbee's collections of prints intended for extra-illustration, see his biography. His series of illustrations to Molière was intended to extra-illustrate his copy of the plays which is now in the BL (pressmark 11737.i.48), and most of the prints have a page number at the bottom right to indicate where they were to be placed. The prints are arranged by title of play in alphabetical order. The box sequence is as follows: I: Amphitryon - La Contesse d'Escarbagnas II: La Critique de l'Ecole des Femmes - L'Ecole des Maris III: L'Etourdi - Le Malade Imaginaire IV Le Marriage Forcé - La Princesse d'Elide

V: Sganarelle - Le Tartuffe (followed by Psyché)

Licensing

[edit]
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
