Very Beautiful Original 1978 Comic Art Page by Pierre de Winninger – The Forgotten Pyramid – Drawing

  
This is original comic art page no. 1 from “La Pyramide oubliée” (The Forgotten Pyramid), published in issue 5 of Circus. This page does not appear in the original comic book. The final panel has come unstuck, revealing an earlier panel that was never published. Both panels need to be reattached to the page.

The title in the upper-left corner is missing, but the name Winninger is visible.

Pierre Wininger, born in 1950, began his career in comics in 1976.

He contributed to Charlie Hebdo and Circus (“Victor Billetdoux”). In 1979, he created “Le Jardin sanglant,” written by Henri Filippini, for Pilote; it was later published as an album by Dargaud. He then created “Nicéphore Vaucanson” for Okapi.

From 1987 onward, Wininger, who also illustrated children’s books, devoted himself to adapting numerous novels for Je Bouquine. He illustrated works by Oscar Wilde, Conan Doyle, Calvino, Carroll, Balzac, Faulkner, Shelley, Stevenson, Saint-Exupéry, du Maurier, Charlotte Brontë, and others.
