Monaco 1950 - Ruth Johansson

Two cartoon animals race their cars head to head, a mouse in a red jumper at the wheel of a yellow car with the number 6 and a duck in an orange jumper in a blue car below. Grey exhaust smoke billows out behind them against a rust orange sky, and MONTE CARLO RALLEY, MONACO and 1950 are lettered across the top in black, white and blue.

Gouache on card in flat colour and heavy black outline, with the lettering drawn by hand. Ruth Johansson Comix is an invented comic series rooted in the artist's own childhood; she studied comics in Helsinki and belongs to the Hameenlinna Artists' Association. Available as a poster or fine art canvas print in multiple sizes.
