Thomas Gianni Original Sherlock Holmes Mystery Magazine #17 Cover Prelim Art
Measuring approximately 11 by 17 inches, this stunning original sketch features the work of Thomas Gianni. The illustration is the preliminary drawing Gianni created in preparation for painting the original art that was ultimately used as the cover to Sherlock Holmes Mystery Magazine #17. The image is from a scene in the original Sir Arthur Conan Doyle story The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire. Please note- this is an actual, original piece of art illustrated by hand by Thomas Gianni. It is not a copy, print or pre-printed image. It is a one-of-a-kind original. Also shown – for reference only – is the finished cover to the magazine but it is not included in with the listing. The listing is for the original artwork only. A graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in Visual Communication, Gianni has worked in advertising, animation, book illustration, and CCG cards for Magic The Gathering and Harry Potter. He has illustrated professionally the pirate stories of Robert E. Howard, Tarzan adventures written by Edgar Rice Burroughs, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes. Also a courtroom sketch artist, he has illustrated such high profile cases as trial of Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich, the Jennifer Hudson family murder trial, and the trial of the notorious Drew Petersen. Beginning in 1983, he has taught illustration, portraiture, structural anatomy, graphic design, and advertising at the American Academy of Art, the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and Columbia College.
