Emanuele Taglietti (born 1943)[1] is an Italian illustrator, mostly known for his covers for digest-sized, adult comics whose themes were sex, violence, and horror.
[1] After attending a local art school, Emanuele Taglietti studied design at the Experimental Centre of Cinematography, in Rome.
He went on to work as decorator and assistant director in around thirty movies, including Federico Fellini's Juliet of the Spirits, Dino Risi's Dirty Weekend, and others.
[1] By the early 1970s, the popularity in Italy of the digest-sized fumetti comics, whose themes were mostly sex, violence, and horror, was at its peak.
By the end of the 1980s, the comics' popularity started to weaken, and Taglietti left Edifumetto to work as an oil painter, as well as an evening-class teacher in decoration and the conservation of murals.
