Complete and unabridged, with 48 full-page plates by Camille Pissarro, Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Jean Béraud. Short tales in the manner Anatole France made his own - saints, sceptics, a Roman procurator who cannot recall a crucifixion, and the miracle of the juggler. The volume includes The Procurator of Judaea, one of the finest short stories in French. This edition is bound with 48 plates of painting by Jean Béraud, Camille Pissarro, Theodor von Hörmann and Carl Schuch, all Paris boulevard scenes from 1850–1912, plus two restored and coloured illustrations. Translated by Frederic Chapman.
