Original illustration made by Magnus for the lower part of page 3 of "Il muro dipinto", a short story from the Le Femmine Incantate series, first published in Dolce Vita magazine no. 1 in October 1987. In the second panel, the lawn and Meng's body are photocopies, as are the upper part of the statue and the friar's bust in the third panel. A museum-worthy work that gives us the opportunity to appreciate like never before the love and effort that Magnus poured into every single panel of his Femmine. << I took inspiration from a series of short stories, Liao's Fantastic Tales, which is completely different from Le Femmine Incantate. There are some very beautiful stories of ghosts and apparitions, funny stories, stories of monks. I singled out some female figures and reworked them, while remaining faithful to the overall spirit. Often it's two or more stories combined. Plus, there's a whole personal story of mine. >> (Magnus)
