Description

George Herriman - Krazy Kat daily strip - 1917
Krazy Kat depicts the unlikely love triangle of a cat, a mouse and a dog: Krazy Kat, Ignatz Mouse and Offissa Pupp. Ignatz loves no one but poor Krazy sees Ignatz’s flying bricks as symbols of love. Offissa Pupp devotes himself to preserving harmony and protecting Krazy from Ignatz’s assaults. Universally acclaimed as one of the most original and influential comic strips, Krazy Kat has long been praised for its philosophical meanderings, poetic dialogue, changing backgrounds, exquisite art and strange props. An American classic admired for its artistic and literary relevance, Krazy Kat has inspired many cartoonists, artists and writers. This daily has Ignatz throwing something a bit more substantial than a brick at Krazy.!


George Herriman - Krazy Kat striscia giornaliera - 1917
Krazy Kat descrive l'improbabile triangolo d'amore tra un gatto, un topo e un cane: Krazy Kat, Ignatz Mouse e Offissa Pupp. Il topo Ignatz non ama proprio nessuno ma la povera gatta vede i suoi mattoni come dei simboli d'amore mentre il cane si dedica a preservare l'armonia e proteggere Krazy dagli assalti di Ignatz. Acclamato come uno dei fumetti più originali e influenti, Krazy Kat è apprezzato per i suoi metodi filosofici e il dialogo poetico. Un classico americano ammirato per la sua rilevanza artistica e letteraria per questo Krazy Kat ha ispirato molti disegnatori, artisti e scrittori. Personalmente la considero tra le strip più belle di tutti i tempi, un opera irripetibile, non a caso terminata con la morte dell’autore. Questa strip che ho inserito in galleria è del 1917, il primo periodo di Krazy Kat nel formato a 5 pannelli verticali, da osservare la sintesi grafica ed il classico lancio finale, in questo caso non del mattone, ma di un grosso sasso (o palla di neve?) alla povera gatta!

Il primo dei tantissimi gatti che hanno popolato il magico mondo del fumetto e forse ancora oggi il più stupefacente :) Un pezzo storico, complimenti!
