Les Histoires en estampes #2

This volume from Seuil's Les Histoires en estampes series collects two early 19th-century graphic narratives by Rodolphe Töpffer: Monsieur Crépin and Monsieur Pencil. Both stories satirize scientific pretension and obsessive hobbies through Töpffer's pioneering comic-strip style, following their eccentric protagonists into absurd misadventures. The edition presents these foundational works in their original sequential art format, preserving Töpffer's hand-lettered text and expressive linework.
