Description

Illustrazione a matita e china su cartoncino (25 x 30 cm) eseguita dal giovane talento americano Gus Dirks, fratello del più famoso Rudolph, morto suicida nel 1902 a soli 21 anni.
Meraviglioso esempio di un'arte intrisa di poesia e fantasia che portarono il giovane Gus a specializzarsi nella rappresentazione di insetti antropomorfi alle prese con la loro vita quotidiana nella contea di Bugville.
Titolo di quest'opera è: "Awake awake: the squirrel is coming", pubblicata successivamente il 4 Novembre 1914 sul magazine americano The Wilmington Morning Star.
Incredibile pensare come un giovane ragazzo che si firmava con un fiore possa aver deciso di porre fine alla propria vita.
Firmata.
