Original comic art made by Crepax for "L'histoire d'O", first published on page 25 by Franco Maria Ricci Editore in 1975. Crepax with his usual mastery transposes one of the most controversial novels of all time into a comic, setting Pauline Reage's work in the 1930s (more suitable to represent the metaphor of violent totalitarianism applied to sex). We follow the adventures of O and her journey from victim to tormentor, in an exploration of sexual life that never ceases to disturb as on the first day. Signed and dated.
