De l’œuvre d’Hugo Pratt émergent quelques mots clés, indissociables de sa vie : voyage, aventure, érudition, ésotérisme, mystère, poésie, mélancolie... et bien sûr, Corto Maltese, son héros et son double, qui l’a imposé comme l’un des plus grands noms de la bande dessinée. Venu au monde en Italie en 1927, mort en Suisse soixante-huit ans plus tard, Hugo Pratt, né sans H et avec un seul T, grandit dans l'ombre d'un père fasciste qui l'emmène très jeune dans une Éthiopie occupée par les forces mussoliniennes. L'adolescent en retire une fascination pour les grands espaces africains, bientôt suivie d'un irrésistible attrait pour le monde indien. Le point de départ d'une existence faite de voyages, de succès, de conquêtes, de rares échecs aussi, et marquée par sa vénération pour le dessinateur américain Milton Caniff, son maître absolu.
