The literary style is evocative and lyrical, utilizing vivid imagery and dynamic characterizations to breathe life into timeless tales.

Francesca Alexander (1859-1958) was an American artist and author, well-versed in the folk traditions of Italy, due in part to her Italian heritage. Living much of her life in Europe, Alexander was influenced by the artistic movements of her time, often capturing the essence of rural Italian life.
