Hogarth also set up home in Majorca in the late 1960s, renewing his acqaintance with Graves (they had produced their first book together, 'Majorca Observed', in 1965) and collaborating with him on the present portfolio.

Añadir al carritoNo Binding. Condición: Very Good. From the artist s studio, 5 trial cover designs for two of Greene's novels published by Penguin Books in the 1970s: 'The Fallen Idol' and 'The Honorary Consul'. Accompanied by a typed letter signed from Hogarth and dated 26 August 1998, to a 'Mr Martin' offering to sell artwork from several pain…ting projects including 'Graham Greene Country' (book published in 1986). Housed in a yellow card folder labelled in the artist's hand 'Monsignor Quixote' relating to another Greene novel. In the four designs for 'The Honorary Consul', Hogarth develops the idea of the novel's protagonist, Dr. Eduardo Plarr, standing over the prone figure of the consul holding a candle: three are on tracing paper, and the other drawn on the inside of a large yellow envelope addressed to Hogarth at his home in Deya, Majorca. In 'The Fallen Idol - Preliminary Idea', Hogarth sketches in pencil the two central figures in the story: Philippe, the ambassador's son, and his idol Baines the butler, walking together in the street. Various sizes, papers and inks. Very good condition. Signed by Illustrator(s).

Añadir al carritoNo Binding. Condición: Fine. Inscribed by Hogarth in pencil "Graham Greene / The Quiet American - first colour design", this image was used virtually unchanged on the cover of the Penguin Books edition of Greene's novel, and shows the 'quiet American' of the title, the young and idealistic Alden Pyle, with crew cut and wide eyes…, as the sun goes down on the final days of French rule in South East Asia. Hogarth first collaborated with Graham Greene in the early 1960s. "One day during the autumn of 1962, I received a telephone call from Penguin Books in London asking me to do the jacket illustrations for a new edition of Graham Greene's novels. Thus I began a working relationship with Graham Greene that flourished for almost 30 years " (Paul Hogarth, 'Drawing on Life', David & Charles, 1997, p.143). Black, grey, blue and red inks on paper. Mounted only. Size: image 27.0 x 23.0 cm, overall 40.0 x 34.5 cm. Pencil caption in the artist s hand, signed by him in full. Signed by Illustrator(s).

Añadir al carritoNo Binding. Condición: Fine. In 1985 the artist Paul Hogarth travelled extensively for a project with Graham Greene, visiting the principal locations of the author's greatest novels to make drawings for a book celebrating 'Graham Greene Country'. Author and artist first worked together in the 1960s when Penguin Books chose Hogar…th to illustrate the front covers of its Graham Greene edition. 'Graham Greene Country' brings together Hogarth's illustrations and travel diary with a foreword and commentary by Greene. In addition to several fully finished large watercolours, Hogarth also produced quickly-drawn vignettes to decorate the book's margins. 'Graham Greene Country' was published to coincide with an exhibition of the drawings at Francis Kyle Gallery in London in October 1986, where Greene remarked: "How I wish I could have all these pictures on my walls" [quoted in 'Drawing on Life - The Autobiography of Paul Hogarth', p.151]. The present drawing, of a Caodaist monk, appears in the margin of page 91 in the chapter on 'The Quiet American'. Pencil and watercolour. Mounted, framed and glazed. Size: image 22.5 x 14.0 cm, overall 44.0 x 32.5 cm. Ink caption in the artist's hand and signed with his initials. Provenance: with Francis Kyle Gallery. Signed by Illustrator(s).

The present drawing, not used in the book, shows the railway station at Rawdon Street, Freetown, Sierra Leone (the setting of 'The Heart of the Matter'), built in 1898 as the centrepiece of the national rail network, here given its post-independence name. During the Second World War, Greene was posted to Sierra Leone by MI6, and his recollection of vultures perched menacingly on his hotel roof in 'Ways of Escape' may have influenced Hogarth in this drawing. A lovely example of the artist's fondness for placing human figures in his drawings of imposing buildings and other landmarks to provide scale and even a little gentle humour. Pencil and watercolour. Mounted, framed and glazed. Size: image 41.0 x 49.0 cm, overall 62.5 x 68.8 cm. Ink caption in the artist's hand, signed and dated 'Paul Hogarth '85'. Some pencil marks visible. Fine condition.
