Descrizione

LIMITED EDITION, one of 1500 hand-numbered copies SIGNED BY THE ILLUSTRATOR, Richard Floethe. Beautifully decorated throughout with the colour illustrations of Richard Floethe. Folio, in the publisher's original flexible beige cloth, the spine lettered in gilt and red, in the original slipcase. xv, 277 pp. A very fine copy, the book is pristine, clean and fresh as could be and without fault, some shelf-wear to the original slipcase.

Edizione: a handsome limited editions club with richard floethe's fine illustrations. based on the low german literary figure till eulenspiegel, coster's novel recounts the allegorical adventures as those of a flemish prankster, thyl ulenspiegel, directly before and during the dutch revolt against spanish rule in the netherlands. as depicted by de coster, ulenspiegel carries in a locket around his neck the ashes of his father, burned at the stake outside of the walls of the city on charges of heresy. this experience begins ulenspiegel's transformation from idle prankster to hero of the dutch revolt.
