No matter whether it’s Kasperl, Kaschberle, Chasperli, Harlequin, Punch or Punchinello: They’ve all gathered in this book to delight us with their buffoonery – culled from life by a true artist’s sleight of hand.
For this book Wolfgang Till, director of Munich’s Stadtmuseum for many years, and illustrator Volker Pfüller have assembled the greatest glove puppets from all over the world. And they haven’t pulled their Punches, either: You’ll also find the wicked witch and the magician, the crocodile, the highwayman and the policeman, the grim reaper and the devil. So come right in! Come right in!
