Creative for a Cause
Carrying On.
Our entire firm congratulates our new president, Nico Marcellino that his father’s unfinished opus was finally published.
Only when an author is a Fulbright Scholar, a celebrated book jacket and classic rock album designer, the most talented of painters and illustrators, a succinctly witty writer, a lover of history, and the ultimate connoisseur of the food and culture of Venice… do you get a book as exquisite as this. Fred Marcellino was in the process of creating this beautiful book when he died. It is a testament to the love and respect of his publisher Simon and Schuster and his agent, Holly McGhee of Pippin Properties, to have commissioned Eric Puybaret to pay homage to an artist he admired by completing this book, gifting one final Marcellino treasure to the world. One only hopes that publishers of children’s literature will from here on aim for this standard.
