Donato Giancola: "The Summoning" Interior

Donato's monochrome drawings are prized for their beauty, and this published interior for Naomi Novik's high-fantasy mythic novel provides collectors with an excellent example.  "Uprooted" is a  2015  standalone novel by Novik inspired by Polish folklore. It won the Nebula Award and was a Hugo Award finalist and has been translated into at least nine languages.  In 2018 Grim Oak Press published a special limited edition of 750,  bonded leather bound, with 33 full page monochrome plates by Giancola; a frontispiece and one illustration for each chapter.  This artwork was featured in Chapter 10, and it is 13" x 10" in Watercolor Pencil and Chalk on Toned Paper, and is signed "Donato" bottom left in the image.
