Illustration for the story "Dante and Boccaccio" of Compiuta Vitti, a writer invented by Milorad Pavic ("Paper Theater").
"… they were presented with two miniature busts of delicate works of famous Italian poets. Their colleagues from Germany received busts of German poets. They were porcelain Goethe and Schiller and, accordingly, Dante and Boccaccio. It is quite logical that the Italian writers went to Italian engineers: the alabaster bust of Dante, with his famous hunchbacked, as if broken nose, and the porcelain Boccaccio, slightly overfed. "
