Original illustration made for the poster of an imaginary festival in Rivesaltes in 1992. Signed. Colored inks and India ink on paper
64.2 × 49.9 cm (25.28 × 19.65 in.)
I made this illustration especially for a festival in Rivesaltes, in the Pyrénées-Orientales. The festival was called "Par monts et merveilles". When I arrived there, when I saw my drawing reproduced on 4 m x 3 m posters, I was shocked! It represents a big dragon, which is in fact a balloon, and underneath there are ropes and a basket, in which Bizu and Schnockbul are. Behind it, there are books flying with mysterious little characters. We were set up in a large cellar, where a forest had been recreated. With bird songs. It was magical. J.-C.F.
