Ligne Claire (or Clear Line in English)
Herge’s style of drawing for Tintin became know as Ligne Claire and became quite popular amongst European comic artists in the 1950s. Few artist use it today, partly because it is a style heavily linked with Tintin, however Peter van Dongen does and this excellent illustration was done by him for a Tintin fanzine.
You can find more of his work on The Ephemerist along with more about the illustration above.
