La Tortue et les deux Canards: Jean de La Fontaine Postcard
Illustration of the Fable of the Tortoise and the Two Ducks by Jean de La Fontaine engraved by Jean-Baptiste Oudry (17 March 1686 – 30 April 1755),a French Rococo painter, engraver, and tapestry designer. In the story, the turtle asks to see the world and the ducks propose a solution. The turtle should bite and hang onto a stick which they will jointly bear aloft. But in her vanity, the turtle cries out "I am the Turtle Queen." But when she opens her turtle beak, she looses her grip and falls to earth. The intended lesson is both a warning to avoid vanity, and an admonishment to find contentment in ones own home.

Exactly what I wanted, it is very difficult to acquire Vintage Australiana items. I am so please that I ordered 8 I will be using them for my scrap booking and Junk Journaling. Gorgeous, Zazzle produced and delivered exactly what I wanted.

Way better quality than I ever expected. I love the colours, font and quality of the card. I'm so pleased I found Zazzle as it is near impossible to purchase Vintage or Retro Australian memorabilia online. I chose this design when I purchased them. They are perfect for my projects. I was very specific about what I wanted. I know where to come now when I need to order similar items.

Perfect for the occasion I was using it for.
I was able to delete the lines so I could put in more wording.
Had an envelope so the address side wasn't necessary. Print quality and paper quality lovely.
