 | emma999 commented on the Other wallpaper Edwardian Day by the Lake. "The Decameron (Italian title: "Decameron"..., is a collection of novellas by the 14th-century Italian author Giovanni Boccaccio (1313–1375). The book is structured as a frame story containing 100 tales told by a group of seven young women and three young men sheltering in a secluded villa just outside Florence to escape the Black Death, which was afflicting the city. Boccaccio probably conceived of The Decameron after the epidemic of 1348, and completed it by 1353. The various tales of love in The Decameron range from the erotic to the tragic. Tales of wit, practical jokes, and life lessons contribute to the mosaic. In addition to its literary value and widespread influence (for example on Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales), it provides a document of life at the time. Written in the vernacular of the Florentine language, it is considered a masterpiece of classical early Italian prose." WikipediaSo, 'Salvatore Postiglione (Naples, December 20, 1861 – Naples, November 28, 1906) was an Italian painter, mainly of portraits, and historic and genre subjects, in a Realist style.' has depicted a much earlier scene from Tales of Decameron (ten days of story making) by Boccaccio, 14th century writer.Still puzzled on costumes... women dresses do look a little Edwardian but then you have men dressed as 14th century Italian fashion for men. |
