What follows is a brief overview of the history of comics, from the cave paintings of Lascaux and Altamira to Blake and Mortimer and Asterix. And at this point, people are going "Oh!" and "Ah!" Obviously, this is the very first time you've seen these drawings reproduced in 3D! |

Les aborigènes australiens ont sûrement inventé la peinture la plus passionnante qui soit. Leur art n'est qu’imagination et invention, tout en étant si moderne ! Naturellement, le jeune public me demande comment je parviens à ajouter du relief dans des images dénuées de toute perspective. Ben, disons juste que cela exige un peu d’imagination.ghj |

Honoré Daumier, ever heard about him? A multi-talented artist—painter, sculptor, engraver, caricaturist—he is said to have produced over 500 paintings, 4,000 lithographs, 1,000 wood engravings, and numerous sculptures. But he is best known for his humorous drawings dedicated to various social groups: lawyers, husbands, politicians, swimmers, gypsies, and so on. |

Wilhelm Busch, what a fascinating artist! He was not only an illustrator and painter, but also a poet. He is well known in Germany for his comic strips, such as the one dedicated to the duo Max and Moritz, a terrible pair of rascals who accumulated misdeeds, the latest of which led them straight into the village baker's oven. |

Gustave Doré is probably the greatest French illustrator: draftsman, sculptor and painter. His most famous illustrations were devoted to Dante's Divine Comedy, La Fontaine's Fables, Cervantes' Don Quixote and many other works by Lord Byron, Rabelais, Balzac, etc. |

Let's be honest, had you ever seen comic strips in relief before? Admit it, it's a change from Grandpa's good old-fashioned comics! |
