Description from the seller
• Pencil on Art Paper – 42 x 30 cm
• Original Preliminary Drawing by Juan Giménez
• Hand-Signed by the Artist
• Character Study of Honorata from La Casta de los Metabarones
• Certificate of Authenticity Included
• Rare Insight Into the Creative Process of a Sci-Fi Master
This captivating original sketch by Juan Giménez features an early conceptual rendering of Honorata, the powerful matriarch from La Casta de los Metabarones, the iconic graphic novel series co-created with Alejandro Jodorowsky.
Drawn in pencil with exquisite sensitivity and personally hand-signed by Giménez, this preparatory work reveals his process of shaping emotion, mystique, and movement in one of the saga’s most enigmatic figures. Her flowing hair and intense gaze are signature elements of the artist’s style—fluid, expressive, and technically precise. Though unfinished, the drawing vibrates with latent narrative energy and reflects the hand of a true master.
▸ Pencil on Art Paper – Size: 42 x 30 cm
▸ Hand-Signed by Juan Giménez
▸ Unpublished Preliminary Character Study

▸ From La Casta de los Metabarones Universe
Juan Giménez (1943–2020) revolutionized science fiction comics with his intricate mechanical visions and cinematic composition. His work on The Metabarons earned him international acclaim and cemented his legacy as one of the genre’s most influential illustrators.
