Les meilleurs récits de... #52

Number 52 in Éditions Hibou's "Les Meilleurs Récits de…" series spotlights the work of Funcken, and the cover sets an immediately gripping tone: a young sailor in an orange sweater and green beret clings to the bowsprit rigging of a wooden vessel as choppy seas and a rocky coastline loom behind him. It's a beautifully rendered image that captures the maritime adventure spirit Funcken brought to the page, rendered with the kind of confident, painterly warmth that makes this 2019 collection feel like a genuine tribute to the artist's storytelling range.
