American pulp fantasy, science fiction and horror illustrator (1914-1971) who was inducted into the Science Fiction Hall of Fame in 2012. Highly detailed original signed ink sketch of a man climbing an ornately carved tomb and discovering the emergence of a supernatural figure on an off-white 10.25 x 8.5 sheet, signed by the artist in the lower right corner, "Virgil, '35." In fine condition, with a small bit of staining along the lower border edge. A wonderful expression of stippling and crosshatching.
