I thought I had done this before, but when Tony (Dickweed) brought him up recently, I realized that apparently I have not posted a thread devoted to Gruau before. So here goes. There is an appalling lack of Gruau's images online, and the ones that are there are a really low resolution. Who knows why. There are also only two books on his work that I know, both either out of print or prohibitively expensive...I own both. If anyone finds another please let me know, as I am a huge fan of his. I own two prints, one a huge linen-backed advertisement for Ortalion stockings, and the other a rice paper signed limited print in black and red of a woman. don't have a scan of the other..but here are some random favorites.
Some new covers for you to check out! http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2008....y-drawn http://i.newsarama.com/preview_images/marvelnew/oct08/xwa001cov.jpg and this one, in case you guys missed it... http://www.asicsamerica.com/cael/ -J. Scott
