EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment from the famous literary work, "Decameron de Boccaccio" specifically the 7th news of the second day. The scene depicts Chatelain Pericone warmly welcoming Alatiel, daughter of the Sultan of Babylon Beminedab, and her entourage to the enchanting island of Mallorca. Painted on wood by an anonymous artist known as Master of the Cassoni in the 15th century, this artwork measures 149x36 cm and is currently housed at Musei Civici Veneziani - Museo Correr in Venice. The composition showcases intricate details and vibrant colors that bring this historical event to life. The viewer can almost feel themselves transported back in time to witness this grand reception firsthand. Alatiel's graceful presence is accentuated by her luxurious attire, while Pericone exudes authority and warmth as he extends his hospitality. This image not only celebrates artistry but also highlights cultural exchange during medieval times. It serves as a visual testament to Jean Boccaccio's enduring masterpiece and its ability to captivate audiences across centuries. Luisa Ricciarini has skillfully captured this remarkable piece through her lens, allowing us all to appreciate its beauty and significance.
