Portrait of the collector as an old man (2023)

So there I was at Lake Como Comic Art Festival 2023, browsing at the Italian dealer's booth that housed the works of Paolo Serpieri, Corrado Roi, and Hugo Pratt. After completing my transaction, I walked away, but the dealer chased me down and gave me this 4x5" crayon/watercolor caricature done while I was shopping. It's by Federico Bertolucci, who is known for doing Disney comics in Europe. Now, I'm not as old as the guy in this image, but hey, I will be one day, Lord willing!
