The artist or the art?

The artist. "Jérome" is the french version of his name

Very cool! Lots of things jumped out at me the more I looked at the drawing.

Looking up the artist had some surprises too! This is much older than I had thought, and his style looks way ahead of his time.

I have seen a few other works of his, but never knew the significance, so I'll have to read more about him!
