Description
Embracing the Death is original black China ink drawing on ivory-colored paper, made by the Swedish illustrator and reporter Adolf Reinhold Hallman around 1936 ca. With a description at the top left in pencil . On the back two blue ink stamps ”Made in Italy by Adolf Hallman, 54 Via Margutta Roma”. The state of preservation is good except for some diffused foxing. This artwork represents interesting scenery, a shadowy man from his back and interesting fictitious scenery of embracing death which is raised from a black hole. Adolf Hallman (1893 1968) was a Swedish illustrator who sensibly contributed to Swedish, Danish and Norwegian newspapers and magazines, including Tidens Tegn, Dagbladet, Exlex and Politiken. Among his books is P Boulevard Europa. He illustrated editions of Charles Baudelaire’s Fleurs du Mal and Guy de Maupassant’s Boule de Suif.
