Snowy Large Model

Tintin and Snowy are the central figures for this series. Here Tintin is seen guiding his friends around a dream of an exhibition! This figure is unique in the fact Tintin is wearing long trousers, well we are in 70's! The characters and objects in this new series are taken from the poster Herg created for the 1979 exhibition, Le Muse Imaginaire de Tintin. In June 1979 a major exhibition, which would later be hosted in other venues, was inaugurated at the Palais des Beaux Arts in Brussels. Herg was not involved in the detail of the exhibition but the creators explained that the purpose was to put some of the objects that Tintin comes across in his adventures alongside the real objects that inspired them. On the poster he created for the exhibition Herg drew his main characters in the middle of an imaginary display, the stuff of dreams for Tintin fans and collectors. Taken from Chronologie dune uvre volume 7. Dimensions: 12.00 x 12.00 x 26.00 cm Material: Hand painted resin Numbered Edition Presented in an elegant box with certificate of authenticity
