Dethorey JEAN-PAUL DETHOREY LOUIS LA GUIGNE Moulin Rouge (Vol. 2), Glénat 1986 Original cover for the reprint of the album. Signed. India ink and gouache on paper 31.1 × 31.2 cm (12.24 × 12.28 in.) A magnificent and powerful illustration depicting Louis La Guigne in front of the Moulin Rouge, the setting for a political conspiracy that forms the heart of the series’ second album. True to his style, Frank Giroud uses the famous cabaret as a gateway to interwar France, caught between the carefree spirit of the Roaring Twenties and the political tensions foreshadowing the tragedies to come. Jean-Paul Dethorey powerfully conveys this contrast: behind the lights of Montmartre, a troubled Europe is already taking shape, making *Louis La Guigne* one of the finest historical epics in French comics.
