The panel is from tome 3 "Le Rige." I liked artist Régis Loisel's ligne claire here, particularly the hatching, shadows and line-work on the mounted beasts. Also, the composition is nicely framed, balancing foreground & background elements with some lush colors, and inverts the typical lighting / shading scheme.
"Roxanna" is ostensibly a 'swords & sorcery'-type series, but there's an unusual, interesting background with our two heroes, i.e. Roxanne and her father, Bragon. I hope to do a proper review one of these days..

There are so many gorgeous panels in that whole series. His larger pieces are truly jag dropping. Loisel is one of my artistic heroes!

Ah, is that right? Hey-- if you get a chance, could you post here some of your favorite Régis Loisel stuff?
Sadly, I haven't seen much of his stuff, mainly because when I was younger, I couldn't read French at all. :/
