Information
pencil and ink on thin cardboard
33 x 44 cm
Original illustration made by Pratt depicting the German army lieutenant Christian Slutter, published in full page in the magazine Sgt. Kirk n. 12 on page 82 in 1968 to accompany the first publication of "Una Ballata del Mare Salato", Corto Maltese's first legendary adventure. On the occasion of the first Italian publication of his "Ballad" in the magazine Sgt. Kirk (from July 1967 to February 1969) Pratt decided to create a series of real portraits to present the various characters of the story; Lieutenant Slutter is certainly one of the most iconic characters of the entire adventure, so much so that Pratt decided to give him the face of his friend and colleague Bonvi. A museum artwork, the only opportunity for every collector to be able to own a fragment of "A Ballad of the Salty Sea". Signed.
