LARGEMOUTHS
Graphic poetry
Inspired by Francisco Goya’s “Saturno devorando a un hijo.” The Earth was still young in these archaic times when the first Men scattered on the face of an obscure and hostile world still inhabited by elves, centaurs and other imps, where the last Giants hunted and feasted on one another. The greatest among them, the Largemouths, fought for the domination of the continents. Ghosts and aerial spirits sang the centuries of the Great Dead giving Man the first Art: Poetry.
