PRAISE FOR THE ART OF RENATO FRATINI

“The book is gorgeous!! Kudos for doing such a great job ... It will be a proud addition to my illustration library!”

Bob Gale — Co-creator and co-writer of Back to the Future

“This is one of the most beautiful books — perhaps the most beautiful book — I have ever seen, much less owned. What a fantastic artist… And what a fabulous book.”

Max Allan Collins — Bestselling author and screenwriter

“What an incredible pleasure. So many stunning images, posters and book covers, all lovingly curated and presented. It is a beautiful book, and you've restored Fratini to his rightful place as one of the major European illustrators of the 20th century.”

Nick Abadzis — Award-winning graphic novelist and artist

“It's truly exceptional, and unquestionably one of the best books on illustration ever published.”
