Vintage French Version of Sleeping Beauty Title Page

Today I have a wonderful title page and illustration from a 1910 French  version of Sleeping Beauty.  The illustration is by Edmund Dulac.  I have shared some of his work with you before and you can find them here.

This title page and illustration was published in 1910 and is Sir Arthur Quiller Couch's version of Sleeping Beauty.  He also published under the pen name of Q.  He is primarily known for his Oxford Book of English Verse 1250-1900.

Here is the tile page
