The Four Seasons of the House of Cerruti is a facsimile edition and translation of an Italian publication (Il Libro Di Casa Cerruti), in turn a translation of an illuminated Latin manuscript. It consists of more than 200 illustrations depicting daily life in northern Italy some 600 years ago. In this text, the wisdom of medieval alchemists in matters of health and nutrition is fully revealed. Fine.
