Sempé, Jean-Jacques - 1 Original drawing - les Cyclistes

Jean-Jacques Sempé, The Cyclists, large original drawing presented in a simple frame (supplied with the drawing) that highlights the purity of the line. This drawing was gifted by the author.

From a simple play of black lines, seemingly simple yet remarkably precise, the artist captures the movement and awkward elegance of characters in a cycling situation.

The slender silhouettes, slightly unbalanced, seem to float in space, humorously embodying that fragile and poetic humanity dear to Sempé.

This drawing naturally evokes its iconic illustrations dedicated to cycling — notably those published in Paris Match or L’Express — where the cyclist becomes a pretext to observe the human comedy, between effort, pride, and gentle irony.

A work of great expressiveness and timeless charm, an absolute signature of Sempé's genius.
