Hello Nakatomi Peoples!
We are very excited to share our newest releases in the Bernie Wrightson Frankenstein Artist Edition series, “Seafaring Life” and “Tempest and Calm” available HERE in the Nakatomi store for the very first time.
Originally drawn in the late 70’s early 80’s, Bernie’s Frankenstein illustrations were (and remain) at the height of fantasy pen-and-ink illustrations. Highly regarded, often imitated, but never surpassed. Wrightson’s work here is a triumph.
“Seafaring Life“ is one of the ‘lost’ illustrations from Wrightson’s Frankenstein suite, as it was created for, but ultimately left out of the original publication. Presented at it’s drawn size of 12×18″ in a hand-numbered and embossed edition of 300. $50, limit two per household.
Our second new release today is “Tempest and Calm“, presented at the original drawn size of 12×18” in a hand numbered and embossed edition of 300. $50, limit 2 per household. Like "Seafaring Life," this is also an unused illustration- not featured in the original publication of Wrightson's masterwork.
