Cet album offre enfin l’edition francaise de l’Orbis Sensualium Pictus, ou Image du monde sensible. C’est le premier livre illustre pour les enfants, base sur une conception revolutionnaire de la pedagogie par Comenius, visant a l’apprentissage de la vie par les jeunes gens. Paru en 1658, il rencontra un succes considerable avec pas moins de cinquante editions, en Occident et en Orient. Le voici traduit, presente et commente par un de ses fervents admirateurs, Lucien X. Polastron, qui met en valeur la fraicheur et la naivete des cent cinquante-deux illustrations, en respectant la mise en pages, la typographie et les ornements de l’original.
