Southern Cross — Block 29
___
In 2007 Ontario’s Firefly Books published Graphic Witness: Four Wordless Graphic Novels, which features four exceptional examples of the early graphic novel form and the beautiful artistry of its practitioners. Among these is Canadian Laurence Hyde’s masterful Southern Cross from 1951. Through a series of 120 striking wood engravings Hyde shares a story that reflects on the impact of nuclear testing on the simple way of life that then existed on Bikini Atoll in 1946.

O' Canada 
Thank you so much for posting this, these are amazing and something I never would have found on my own! I just placed an order for it and can’t wait for it to arrive! Thank you again.
Heather, I think you’ll enjoy the entire book, which is very expressive — my post doesn’t do it justice. I see you’re working on drawing technique so it may be useful for that as well.
Best,
Brett
