Roque/Wladimyr. Original plate from a gag (n°26) illustrating the little duck published in the journal Spirou in 1972. India ink signed. Rare. TBE+. 32 X 23 cm Carlos Roque (1936-2006) made his debut in the Portuguese newspaper Camarada with the Malaquias series (1959) and various illustration works, as well as a long story entitled O Cruzeiro do Caranguejo, published several times in albums. He continued his career in Belgium and France, contributing to the Belgian weeklies Tintin and Spirou. It was at Dupuis that he made his career with the charming Angélique series (1968-1971) and the little duck Wladimyr (1969), poetic fantasies much appreciated by André Franquin, to whose scripts Raoul Cauvin and his wife Monique Roque sometimes collaborated. For many years, he was responsible for the graphics of Spirou and its Dutch-language counterpart, Robbedoes. His round, dynamic and skilful line placed him in a graphic tradition close to the Marcinelle school, notably that of Jean Roba and Raymond Macherot, but also, to a lesser extent, in the tradition of American cartoonist Walt Kelly, the creator of Pogo. He won the 1976 Prix Saint-Michel for his body of work.
