Description from the seller
Charming illustrated collection of this edition, which gathers one hundred short stories, often bawdy, satirical, or moral, vividly depicting the customs and flaws of medieval society.
Albert Robida's illustrations, a renowned draftsman and caricaturist, give the stories a new visual dimension: they convey the witty spirit, irony, and fantasy of the tales, while immersing the reader in a medieval universe reinvented by the imagination of the 19th century.
