This is the unique original Pen & Ink Wash by Nadir Quinto.
A charming depiction of a rather quaint pseudo medieval Dover port (complete with 17th Century sailing ships). The pup appears to be chasing the ship heading out of the harbour. A lovely conversation piece.
From Teddy Bear 18th October 1969 page 4.
- Artist BiographyNadir Quinto (1918 - 1994; Milan, Italy)
Nadir Quinto's contributions to the Thriller Picture Library were strips featuring the adventures of Robin Hood. Nadir Quinto was born in Milan and attended the Accademia di Brera and, immediately after the War, began contributing picture strips to most of the top Italian comic journals such as Dinamite, Albi di Salgari, Festival and L'Intrepido. In 1946 he began drawing and lettering strips for Corrieri dei Piccoli. After his brief time drawing Robin Hood strips for the TPL, he left comics to concentrate on illustration, only to return to drawing strips for the Italian comic journals in the 1970s.
