Fictitious Feasts, a project created by renowned French photographer Charles Roux, offers a new insight into the classic works of literature by focusing on one aspect that many, if not the vast majority, of them have in common — food. By exploring a sublime link between literature, food and photography, the author recreates meal and food-related scenes from famous novels and stories, offering new insight into these creations. More of Roux's creations can be perused at his official website and Instagram account.
