Caricature

Caricature   is a beautiful black China original drawing on ivory-colored paper, made by the Swedish illustrator and reporter  Adolf Reinhold Hallman  around Fifties. The state of preservation is excellent, except for a usual yellowing of the paper at the edge of the sheet

On the back the blue ink stamp  "Made in Italy by Adolf Hallman, 54 Via Margutta Roma".  on the lower left corner of the sheet. Including a white cardboard passepartout, cm 34 x 49.

On the lower margin of the back, the title is hand-written in pencil but not completely readable.

This artwork represents a curious satirical portrait of a man described with alien's face features, with two too big and protruding eyes. 

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 På Boulevard Europa. He illustrated editions of Charles Baudelaire's  Fleurs du Mal and Guy de Maupassant's Boule de Suif.
