Description
Jean Giraud (Moebius) Le Monde d'Edena, Sur l'Etoile #1 Citroën Traction Avant Story Page 20 Original Art (Les Humanoïdes Associés, 1983). Offered here is Story Page 20 from Sur l'Étoile, Moebius' seminal 1983 graphic novel inaugurating the Edena Cycle. Of the album's 39 story pages, only seven feature the iconic Citroën Traction Avant -- the French automotive classic elevated into Moebius' visionary science fiction landscape. This makes the present board an unusually scarce and desirable subject piece, fusing European cultural heritage with Moebius' cosmic imagination. Moebius is at the height of his ligne claire refinement: razor-clean ink line, meticulous architectural draftsmanship, and a serenity of panel rhythm that feels both classical and futuristic. Sur l'Étoile marks the launch of Le Monde d'Edena, Moebius' most expansive narrative cycle -- born from his Citroën promotional strip The Star (1983) and developed into a metaphysical saga across decades. Page 20 sits precisely at that hinge: a commercial commission transformed into personal mythology. Ink on Bristol board with and image area of 11.25" x 14.5". In Excellent condition.More information about Jean Giraud. See also: Giraud (Moebius), Jean, Jean (Moebius) Giraud, Moebius, Giraud, Jean Artist. Lookup the Comic Book in our Guide
