| signed,
numbered and sketched artist's proof edition of 10
printed by belgian publisher silhouet in may
2001, this portfolio contains two different sets of artwork: 8 prints of giovanna's
trademark sexy-ladies drawings and 8 "very revealing" (as they used to say in
those ads back in the days...) sepia-toned pictures of giovanna herself.
the drawings are printed in color on 9x12"
watercolor-like board, while the pictures are on sleek board, and the set is contained in
a hardcover sleeve with inner flaps to hold the prints. all the prints are hand-signed in
pencil, as is the certificate of authenticity which is also numbered "artist's proof
edition # of 10".
how is the artist's proof edition different from
the standard s&n run? well, each one of these portfolios has an original
casotto's pencil drawing on the back of the certificate of authenticity! and
we're not talking about a small headsketch, but a full figure as large as the c.o.a.
itself!!! just click on the thumbnails below to see which drawing is contained in which
portfolio.
