quelque chose d'amusant

I was looking through past sales at a French auction house for another thread to which I,occasionally :wink:, post and found these. I don't think they're art but they are amusing.

Google translator was of no help to me on this.

The first one is basically the man asking the woman if the smoke will bother her and in the second, the closest I can tell is the captive is blaming the moon for not caring about his escape or something similar.

Evidently Cortez can see the images, but I don't see anything?

Must have been one of those glitches with my confuser. When I came back I can see the images.

The first is by Sempe, a well known French illustrator and cartoonist. I have one of his books and they have wonderful little snippets, done in his own style, showing aspects of French life. Great artist and cartoonist, with a real sense of humour and irony. The second picture looks like the work of Goscinny and/or Uderzo, the artists responsible for Asterix the Gaul. I could be mistaken, but there is something very familiar about the style here.

Which goes to show why I love this forum. I learn something new here everyday.

Thanks geo3rge
