Lafebre Lot n° 130

JORDI LAFEBRE Despite everything, Dargaud 2020 Original illustration realized in 2021. Signed. Acrylic and India ink on paper 32 × 44.9 cm (12.6 × 17.68 in.) The Spanish artist Jordi Lafebre is known in France thanks to his fruitful collaboration with the scriptwriter Zidrou. Together they have produced several stories "that feel good" and Les Beaux Étés, in which they develop a feel good quality that is rare in comics. He continues in this way here, in what is his first solo graphic novel, Despite Everything, including this very Japanese illustration, where we find Ana and Zeno spinning the perfect love, in an immaculate white that springs from a case of Japanese cherry trees. Charming.
