Description

I’ve had this piece for awhile. Realized there weren’t a ton of examples from this book on CAF.

Stardust is a classic. Incredibly well done graphic novel by Gaiman and Vess. The movie is a favorite of ours, feels like a successor to the Princess Bride.

But it started with this Vertigo book. Gaiman’s story is one of his best. But the whimsical art by Charles Vess made it special. He brought this story to life in a way that made it an instant fairytale amount the classics. I love this scene between two main characters with some of Vess’s trademarks like the faeries in the upper left. It’s a prime example of his beloved style.

Those fine touches and the light watercolors bring a fairy tale like wonder to the audience. Those little witnesses on the opposite corners may be the ones to relay the story to a scribe down the line.
