Lot description
Superb complete collection of 16 Corto Maltese albums, the famous adventurous sailor created by Hugo Pratt, published by Le Soir in collaboration with Casterman in 2017, on the occasion of the character's 50th anniversary.
This collector edition gathers the 29 original Corto Maltese adventures in 16 large-format color volumes, presented in the chronological order of the creation of the stories.
The volumes are distinguished by their blue linen-back hardcover, their elegant presentation and their cohesive graphic identity. Gathered side by side, the backs form a decorative set particularly appreciated by comics enthusiasts.
Each album is enriched with an editorial dossier devoted to the work, written by Daniel Couvreur, comics specialist at Le Soir, and illustrated with drawings and watercolors by Hugo Pratt.
