An artistrsquo;s unique take on the museum experience: peoplewatching Author and artist David Prudhomme meanders through the Louvre; feeling as if in the panels of a giant comic while he himself is creating his own is this graphic novel. In this institution; all manner of people from all over the world rub elbows quietly. So Prudhomme decides to cruise through the museum; not to look at the world famous art; but to observe the people and their interaction with it. As he wanders; he discovers a group of students somehow stuck together just as in the shipwreck on the Raft of the Medusa; a man standing behind the Seated Scribe; as if attempting to read over his shoulder; and in the hall of antiquities; a woman placing her head in a lionrsquo;s mouth. This work presents readers a strange; silent; and casual choreography; danced in the midst of one of the most prestigious museums in the world.
