A beautiful art book devoted to the creator of Ernest and Celestine. This is the latest volume in Daniel Maghen's Biographie en images ("Biography in pictures") series of art books.
From the publisher:
A pictorial biography of the creator of Ernest and Celestine
How did Monique Martin, the painter, become Gabrielle Vincent, the illustrator of one of the most beautiful and touching collections of children's books? Perhaps because drawing for children in the 1970s and 1980s wasn't very appropriate when you were a renowned artist exhibiting in Brussels galleries. Or more certainly for the pleasure of playing, surprising, having fun, and never letting your art be dictated to.
Résumé
Une biographie en images de la créatrice d'Ernest et Célestine
Comment Monique Martin, l'artiste peintre, est-elle devenue Gabrielle Vincent, l'illustratrice d'une des plus belles, des plus touchantes collections de livres pour les enfants ? Peut-être parce que dessiner pour les enfants, dans les années 70 et 80, ce n'est pas très convenable quand on est une artiste reconnue et exposée dans les galeries bruxelloises. Ou plus certainement pour le plaisir de jouer, de surprendre, de s'amuser et de ne jamais se laisser dicter son art.
