Giuseppe Bergman – Issue #1 – The Venetian Master (2005)
Description:
This is Issue #1 of the Giuseppe Bergman series, created by Milo Manara, one of the most influential figures in European comics. Born on September 12, 1945, in Italy, Manara is internationally renowned for balancing highly artistic storytelling with erotic and philosophical themes earning lasting respect both as a graphic novelist and as a fine artist.
The Giuseppe Bergman series is a metafictional adventure that reflects on travel, art, illusion, and self-discovery, often blurring the line between reality and imagination. The character Giuseppe Bergman serves as an alter ego through which Manara explores creativity, experience, and the act of storytelling itself. The series is considered one of Manara’s most personal and intellectually layered works.
In Turkey, the series was published by Parantez Yayınları between 2005 and 2007, with a total of 9 volumes released. All Turkish editions follow the original Italian publication order and were printed in black and white. This first volume was published in 2005 and includes the stories HP & Giuseppe Bergman and The Venetian Master (Le Maître de Venise).
