I was on holiday in Italy (back home :-)..and we spent some days in Tuscany.
There I finally had the occasion to visit Simone in his studio (thanks again Gloria for setting this up)! Honestly I was like child in a Toy store! And Simone and Gloria are just two wonderful persons. We spent a great time talking about arts, comics,...
All of this to say that with my wife we had an enormous “coup de Coeur” for a magnificent (and huge) painting of Simone, that it was not showed yet anywhere...
This could be my only acquisition of 2015, but now I understand when other collectors talks about having a “gem” in their collection. Well..this is definitely my gem :-)!!
Thanks again Gloria and Simone for making this possible
Just for info: the overall size is around 19x27 inch, the “painted part” is 16x24..
