Original illustration made by Giardino for "La Finestra di Notte", a short erotic story without text published for the first time in black and white in the Vittorio Giardino Glamor Book published by Glamor International in 1986. A refined and sensual work which in 1998 with the title "Fenêtres de nuit" became a portfolio containing 8 color silkscreens (reproducing the drawings of '86 in color) printed by the famous Raspoutine bookshop in Lausanne in just 200 copies. Giardino stages the turbulent night of a designer (a clear self-portrait) caught spying from the window on a beautiful girl who unknowingly becomes his muse until an abrupt epilogue. Signed on the front and back with the artist's stamp.
