EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image, the Italian author Giovanni Boccaccio (1313-1375) is depicted in profile, his intense gaze fixed on an unseen horizon. The portrait, a testament to the intellectual and artistic vibrancy of the Renaissance era, captures the essence of Boccaccio's profound intellect and literary genius. The portrait on the right, equally captivating, is that of his beloved, known as La Fiammetta. Boccaccio, a native of Florence, is considered one of the greatest writers in the Italian literary tradition. He is best known for his Decameron, a collection of one hundred tales, each told by a different narrator over the course of ten days. These stories, filled with wit, humor, and social commentary, reflect the rich cultural and historical context of medieval Italy. La Fiammetta, whose identity remains a subject of debate among scholars, is believed to have been Boccaccio's muse and inspiration. The two are said to have met in the gardens of the Bardi family villa in Certaldo, where Boccaccio was a guest. The connection between the two is immortalized in the Decameron, where La Fiammetta appears as a character in several tales and is the dedicatee of the work. The portrait of Boccaccio, with its intricate details and lifelike rendering, invites us to delve deeper into the mind of this remarkable author. The portrait of La Fiammetta, with its enigmatic smile and gentle expression, beckons us to explore the depths of their relationship and the enduring power of love and inspiration. Together, these portraits offer a glimpse into the world of Boccaccio and the enduring legacy of the Decameron.
