Description

BARRY WINDSOR-SMITH - Vampirella #9 "The Boy Who Loved Trees!" story page 2 (Warren 1971)

Barry Smith draws his only story (six pages) for Warren, in a style not unlike his early Conan works. In his story, a boy encounters tree dryads after falling victim to a gang of bullies. Smith's drawings have a beautifully surrealistic feel.
The great-looking page is produced in ink and Zipatone over graphite on Bristol board with an image area of 14" x 20" (large art)
This story is included in Dynamite's Vampirella Archives Volume Two.
I love the first panel, pure BWS art!
_________________________________________________________________________________________

Barry Smith disegna la sua unica storia (6 pagine) per Warren "Il Ragazzo Che Amava Gli Alberi!" nel 1971, quindi in uno stile non dissimile dal suo primo lavoro su Conan. Nella storia, un ragazzo incontra le driadi degli alberi dopo essere caduto vittima di una banda di bulli, alla fine saranno proprio quest'ultimi a pagare con la vita i loro soprusi.
Questa è in assoluto la seconda storia realizzata interamente da Smith (matite e chine), i disegni hanno un aspetto meravigliosamente surreale. E' questo il periodo dove l'artista si evolve verso un tratto elegante e raffinato, senza precedenti nella produzione Silver Age dei comic book. A questo si aggiunge una cura dei dettagli scenografici e della rappresentazione anatomica che pongono Windsor-Smith nella storia dei fumetti come uno tra i disegnatori più dotati e innovativi di sempre.
Questa bellissima pagina è prodotta con inchiostro e retini su cartoncino Bristol di grandi dimensioni con un'area dell'immagine di 35 x 50 cm.
Questa storia è inclusa anche nel secondo Volume degli Archivi di Vampirella della Dynamite.
Probabilmente avrei speso gli stessi soldi solo per avere il primo meraviglioso pannello che da solo misura 17x31 cm ed è pura arte BWS!

Un lavoro giovanile del grande BWS, ma, come hai detto, già pienamente rappresentativo del suo stile raffinato e unico nel mondo del fumetto. Splendido acquisto!
