Baci dalla provincia #2

Gipi's distinctive watercolor sensibility is on full display in this 2006 Coconino Press release, where the muted, rain-washed cover depicts a group of figures moving through a grey, atmospheric urban landscape beneath a stormy sky. The loose, expressive brushwork gives the scene a quiet melancholy that feels both literary and deeply personal. As the second installment in the *Baci dalla provincia* series, this issue showcases why Gipi — handling every aspect of the work himself — stands as one of the most compelling voices in European comics.
