Litografia, antica ed originale, stampata a colori, tratta dal ricercato e raro giornale umoristico settimanale LA RANA, fondato a Bologna nel novembre 1865 da Leonida Gioannetti e da Augusto Grossi. Fu un giornale di grande successo per le sue satiriche caricature a colori di cui alcune in qudruplo foglio che fu uno dei successi editoriali. I politici, lo Stato Ecclesiastico e la politica europea furono i prediletti ispiratori. Il periodico affrontò una grave crisi nel 1873, quando Grossi decise di abbandonare la redazione per fondare Il Papagallo. La Rana sospese le pubblicazioni nel 1911, per cessarle definitivamente nel 1912. N° 41 del 12ottobre 1888
