This project offers a creative reinterpretation of Prezzemolina, the 1867 fairy tale by Vittorio Imbriani, developed into two complementary outputs: an illus trated book and a vegetarian cookbook. The illustrated book reimagines the original tale with new plotlines and characters, brought to life through a blend of digital
drawing and analog stamping using natural materials like leaves and flowers. This combination gives the artwork a textured, organic quality that enhances the story’s magical atmosphere. The cookbook extends this world into the kitchen, with imaginative vegetarian recipes that feature parsley as the central ingredient, a
nod to its symbolic role in the tale. Each dish is playful, colorful, and visually appealing, encouraging creativity while staying true to the story’s whimsical spirit. Together, the two books create a cohesive experience that bridges storytelling and cooking, inviting readers to explore a world of fantasy, nature, and flavor.
