Ticonderoga page by Hugo Pratt

I picked this up recently at an Italian Auction and thought it was a great example of Pratt's work on this series. Originally published in Argentina in Fontera Extra #8 in June of 1959. Frontera was Hector Oesterheld's comic and his collaborations with Pratt along with others like Breccia are the stuff of legends. This is the first work by Pratt I have with his painting style and it is gorgeous. I have included details of the first and last panel so you can perhaps appreciate the brush work and the abstract elements of the landscape. The figure with their arms up in the final panel is "so" Pratt!
