About the Item

French mid 20th Century drawing in the style of Georges Remi, dit Hergé. The work is not signed but is titled (Cannes) and dated (Mai 1969) to the back of the paper. Presented in modern gilt frame under glass. A charming street view of Cannes on the Cote D'Azur in the South of France, an area now internationally famous for its film annual festival. The artist has captured the imposing nature of the fine stone buildings with their blue and green shutters towering over the scene. Next to it a fine trees so characteristic of French streets are just coming in to leaf. Two men go about their business, one is walking towards a cafe. Cars and a red delivery truck animate the scene. The style of the artist is clearly inspired by the animations of Georges Remi, dit Hergé which were so popular at this period. Georges Remi, more commonly known as Hergé created his own clean, expressive style of drawings known as ligne claire ("clear line") for his internationally famous books in the Tintin series. The Adventures of Tintin (French: Les Aventures de Tintin) is a series of 24 comic albums created by Belgian cartoonist Georges Remi, who wrote under the pen name Hergé. The series was one of the most popular European comics of the 20th century
