Description
Jim Broadbent's graphic novel Dull Margaret is inspired by Pieter Bruegel the Elder's 16th-century painting of a powerful woman. This striking image serves as the starting point for Broadbent's exploration of what life might have been like for this enigmatic figure. The result is a haunting and thought-provoking work that delves into the bleak existence of Dull Margaret, a character whose story is shaped by the violent landscape around her. Through Broadbent's distinctive voice and Dix's artwork, this graphic novel offers a unique perspective on a fascinating historical reference point. Hardcover, 152 pages.
