A fun map of Australasia by Hugo Pratt who’s real name was Ugo Eugenio Prat. He was born in Rimini, Italy but spent most of his childhood in Venice where he was brought up in a very cosmopolitan family, and is even related to the actor Boris Karloff (né William Henry Pratt). Pratt made his name as a comic book creator who was known for combining strong storytelling with extensive historical research. This map was published as a supplement in the comic book series ‘Corto Maltese’.
