A beautiful set of three early 19th century French Creil black transferware plates from the celebrated fable series. Each plate features a different finely engraved scene, including Tircis et Amarante, L'Amour Préside à Leur Entretien, and Le Meunier, Son Fils et l'Âne, framed by the elegant grapevine border characteristic of this sought after service. A wonderful grouping for display, bringing together three charming literary and pastoral scenes from one of France's most collectible early transferware patterns.
