Tillieux/César et Enestine. Original plate #17 illustrating a very "witty" gag published in the journal moustique. India ink and blue pencil circa 1970. Superb and amusing collector's item in perfect condition. Quality frame with anti-reflective glass included (Schleiper): 55 X 45 cm Born in Huy in 1921 and died in 1978, Maurice Tillieux was destined for a career in the merchant navy, when the German invasion deprived him of any opportunity to pursue this profession. From 1947 to 1956, Tillieux developed his talent in the full-length weekly HEROïc-ALBUMS, where he became a master of humorous and atmospheric detective stories. In keeping with his maritime nostalgia, he began with the perilous cruises of the radio operator "Bob Bang". He went on to write a dozen realistic stories, often inspired by American cartoonists, but it was with the development of the "Félix, Allume-Gaz and Cabarez" trio that he discovered his true calling, producing some fifty episodes in which humor, mystery and action were finely balanced. With the demise of Heroïc-Albums, he finally became a Dupuis star, with "Marc Jaguar" for the short-lived weekly Risque-Tout, "Gil Jourdan" investigations for Spirou and "César" gags for Le Moustique. Towards the end of the '60s, drawing began to weigh on him, and the storyteller in him began to awaken. He entrusted the graphic side of "Gil Jourdan" to Gos, and turned mainly to scripting for Francis ("La Ford T"), René Follet ("S.O.S. Bagarreur"), Arthur Piroton ("Jess Long"), Will ("Tif et Tondu"), Roba ("La Ribambelle"), Leonardo Vittorio ("Hultrasson"), Walthéry ("Natacha"), etc... The man who imagined and drew so much vehicle destruction died in a road accident in France.
