A Polish translation of Giovanni Boccaccio’s work authored by Edward Boyé. The 1930 edition contains beautiful illustrations by the Polish painter and graphic artist Maja Berezowska, sometimes called the creator of Polish porn. The series of her drawings for the Decameron are modern graphics stylised as folk woodcuts which fit in with the Art Deco trend.
