Toonder, Marten - 1 coloring page - Marten Toonder Studio's - Tom Poes & Heer Bommel - 1956

Original drawings from Marten Toonder Studios have always been very rare and that can and will never change. On 1 December 2010, the cultural heritage of Marten Toonder (all the work that Marten Toonder himself produced) was officially transferred by the heirs to the Leiden Literary Museum, and since then is thus owned by the Dutch State. In November 2018, the archive of Marten Toonder Studios was donated to the Literary Museum in The Hague and the Eye Filmmuseum in Amsterdam. See the last photo. The chance that original drawings come onto the market is therefore extremely small.

This piece now up for auction, a wondrously beautiful plate, is a gorgeous, original color-illustrated page from "Tom Poes en Brombollen," originally painted and, among other things, published in the album.
At Marten Toonder Studios, artists worked. For this beautiful page, every panel is beautifully painted/colorized; each panel is a frame-worthy little work of art. Color pages of this caliber are a feast for the eye and stunning to frame. The depicted print of a definitive publication serves as an example and is not included with this lot. It is the scan of page 43 in the Oberon album.

Page size: 31 x 19.8 cm.

The page will be sent to the new owner by registered mail, packed to the maximum extent.
