The mole and his mother_ 2012

Aesop's Fable

Illustrated book project

 

A Mole, a creature blind from birth, once said to his Mother: "I am sure than I can see, Mother!" In the desire to prove to him his mistake, his Mother placed before him a few grains of frankincense, and asked, "What is it?' The young Mole said, "It is a pebble." His Mother exclaimed: "My son, I am afraid that you are not only blind, but that you have lost your sense of smell."

 

The follows illustrations are my personal interpretation of the Aesop's fable.
