EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite cover of "Deccameron" by Giovanni Boccaccio, a renowned Italian author. Published in Venice in 1635, this literary masterpiece has stood the test of time and continues to captivate readers worldwide. The image adds an air of mystery and nostalgia, transporting us back to the 14th century when this iconic work was first penned. The photograph was taken at the library of the University of Barcelona, located in vibrant Catalonia, Spain. Its vertical composition emphasizes the grandeur and significance of this literary treasure within its historical context. Santiago Ortega skillfully captured every intricate detail on this enchanting book cover - a testament to his artistic talent. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of Boccaccio's incredible storytelling prowess that unfolds within these pages. "Deccameron" is a collection of one hundred tales told by ten young people seeking refuge from the Black Death pandemic that ravaged Italy during their time. It explores various themes such as love, morality, wit, and human nature with remarkable depth and insight. This print serves as a reminder not only of Boccaccio's enduring legacy but also pays homage to literature itself as an invaluable source for knowledge and inspiration. It invites us to delve into worlds created by brilliant minds like Boccaccio while appreciating the beauty found within books themselves.
