Beschreibung:
Complete and unabridged, with 50 full-page plates by Giovanni Paolo Panini, Arnold Böcklin and Odilon Redon. A woman disguises herself as a man, rises through the medieval church and becomes pope - the legend of Pope Joan, told as a study of ambition and sorcery. Bowen wrote it at twenty-four and it remains her strangest book. This edition is bound with fifty plates of painting, 1495–1920, among them works by Bosch, Goya and Redon.
