Food & Drink Children’s Books Art, Design & Photography
Fruits of the Earth, the 1975 illustrated hardcover by Francesco Corbetta and Francesco Bianchini, pairs vivid botanical art with quiet storytelling to celebrate fruit, flora and Renaissance craft. Young-adult and adult readers alike will enjoy this vintage picture book that doubles as a collectible art volume.
Every plate bursts with hand-finished color, making the book a shelf-statement for lovers of food, botany and art culture. The intact dust jacket and tight, clean pages keep the visual impact fresh, while the impressed ex libris stamp hints at a well-traveled yet carefully kept provenance.
Light corner creases and two dog-eared pages are the only gentle reminders of past readings; no writing or smoke odors intrude. A charming find for collectors seeking antiquarian, culinary or art-themed editions.
