Italian folk tales were put down in writing in the 1500s - as early as the portrait by Giovanni Bellini below. Italian collections are much older than French ones, which borrowed tales from Italy. Some of the Grimm tales likewise stem from Italy and nearby. The tales here have been modified somewhat. - Tormod Byrn Kinnes
