Krátky popis
Frank Frazetta has reigned as the undisputed king of fantasy art
for well over 50 years, the value of his paintings now climbing as
high as his fans’ admiration. Each year his works break the
previous year’s auction records, with the cover for Lancer books
1967 Conan bringing $13.5 million in September 2025.Born to a
Sicilian immigrant family in Brooklyn, 1928, Frazetta was a minor
league athlete, petty criminal and serial seducer with movie star
looks and phenomenal talent. Self-described as lazy and difficult,
he often started a painting the night before it was due, completing
it in mere hours, yet delivering a masterpiece—often still wet, but
a masterpiece, nonetheless.He started in comics&,nbsp, at age
16, including the infamous EC Comics, moved on to film posters,
then to Tarzan and Conan pulp covers. Along the way he produced
magazine covers for National Lampoon, though at odds with the
editors’ “hippy politics,” made the animated film Fire &,amp,
Ice with director Ralph Bakshi, and learned to paint left-handed at
age 68 after the first of many strokes paralyzed his right hand. As
he explained in the 1970s, “I’m very physical minded.In Brooklyn, I
knew Conan, I knew guys just like him.” Using this first-hand
knowledge of muscle and macho he redefined fantasy heroes as more
massive, more menacing, more testosterone-fueled than anything seen
before, and their female counterparts as thick-thighed,
heavy-buttocked, and pixie-faced, yet still, with their soft
bellies and hints of cellulite, believably real. All in all,
Frazetta’s art is addictive as potato chips, and now available in a
compact, attractive and affordable package.
