Fauna en symboliek #2

From Jean-Claude Servais comes this second volume in the Fauna en Symboliek series, published by Dupuis in 2024. The cover draws you immediately into a quiet, autumnal riverscape where a majestic white stag with a full rack of antlers stands its ground on the far bank, holding the gaze of an older man wading through the shallows — while a blond boy watches intently from the bow of a small boat in the foreground. Servais's detailed, naturalistic linework gives the scene a hushed, almost mythic quality that makes Koning Hert feel like a story where the natural world carries deep meaning.
