Civiello/La graine de folie. Original technical drawing presenting a goblin under all the seams. Work signed in 1996 for the creation of a figurine that was not commercialized. Plumb line on paper with a patina like a treasure map. Beautiful unique collector's item. A serigraphy of this drawing was published in 1997 by the bookshop Forbidden Zone. TBE. 25 X 30 cm Emmanuel Civiello, is known in the world of comics in 1996 with the release of the first volume of a fairy tale, "La Graine de folie". He has a particular admiration for René Hausman and of course the English illustrators Brian Froud and Alan Lee. He also drew a new series, "Korrigans", scripted by Thomas Mosdi, another great fan of dark and gothic atmosphere. The plot of this new series is of course fantastic but also historical.
