EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print depicts the renowned Italian writer, Giovanni Boccaccio (1313-1375), surrounded by a decorative ark adorned with a scene from his most famous work, The Decameron. Boccaccio, born in Certaldo, Tuscany, in 1313, was a prolific author, poet, and philosopher, whose influence on Italian literature is immeasurable. He is best known for his masterpiece, The Decameron, a collection of one hundred stories told by ten young Florentines during the Black Death epidemic. The intricately designed ark in this print serves as a visual representation of the narrative structure of The Decameron. Each day, the ten storytellers choose a theme for their tales, and the ark symbolizes their temporary refuge from the plague-ridden world outside. The scene depicted on the ark is from the ninth day's stories, where the theme is "false faces," and the storytellers share tales of disguise and deception. Boccaccio's innovative approach to storytelling and his ability to capture the human condition in all its complexity made The Decameron a literary landmark in European literature. This print, with its beautiful decorative elements and the portrayal of Boccaccio, serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of this great Italian writer. Boccaccio's influence extended beyond literature, as he was also a significant figure in the development of the humanist movement. He died in 1375, leaving behind a rich literary heritage that continues to inspire and captivate readers around the world. This print, with its historical significance and artistic beauty, is a valuable addition to any collection of Italian literature or art.
