Description from the seller

Charles Deulin. Flemish Stories. Paris, Alcide Picard et Kaan, sd [1899], 272 pp.

A quarto volume (270x190 mm), half vellum, smooth spine (bindings of the period). Light signs of wear on the binding, one tear p. 152 with missing paper in a corner without affecting the text. Fresh interior, rare foxing.

Illustrated edition with 112 illustrations by P. Kauffmann, wood-engraved by MM. Quesnel and Villem Sens

Charles Deulin, in his collection Flemish Stories, plunges the reader into the picturesque and often mysterious universe of nineteenth-century Flanders. Through tales imbued with realism and the fantastic, he explores the manners, legends, and traditions of this border region between France and Belgium.

The stories mix vivid characters, evocative landscapes, and plots where humor, tragedy, and the supernatural meet. Deulin portrays, with finesse, rural life, local superstitions, and social conflicts, while celebrating the rich Flemish culture."
