This theme is tied to the seafaring, exotic adventures of Corto Maltese, indefatigable explorer and maritime wanderer. <\/strong><\/h3>\n

H<\/span>ugo Pratt being a good Venetian, the sea is an integral part of his imaginative world. This subject is tied to Pratt’s love of travel and of travel writers like Robert Louis Stevenson, Joseph Conrad, Herman Melville, Jack London, Ernest Hemingway\u2026
