Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.

Mathilde va présenter Fabien, son amoureux surveillant au Louvre, à sa famille. Et là, le pépé sort un tableau de famille et dit qu’il pourrait peut-être trouver sa place au musée. Non ? Et d’ailleurs, qu’est-ce qu’une oeuvre, laquelle a sa place au musée et qui décide ?

L’histoire chouki d’un jeune couple, d’un tableau un peu moche (portrait d’un chien qui louche), d’une société secrète et… du Louvre édité aux éditions du Louvre.

Une BD rigolote qui doit se trouver en bonne position dans la boutique du musée ( )

Cet auteur était assez à la mode il y a quelques années quand il a sorti une bande dessinée sur les vignerons. J'étais donc curieuse de le découvrir à travers ce titre, qui est le seul que possède la bibliothèque de mon village. La question n'est pas inintéressante: qu'est-ce que l'art? qu'est-ce qui mérite d'être conservé par notre histoire et notre culture, qu'est-ce qui ne le mérite pas? Mais le traitement de cette question m'a paru assez superficiel, avec cette étrange République du Louvre qui n'était pas nécessaire pour le propos, et quelques scènes crues (oui, je suis peut-être un peu prude...) qui n'apportent rien au propos.
Je suis donc dans l'ensemble assez déçue, et je n'ai apprécié que les dessins des statues du Louvre, qui sont dans des salles où je ne m'arrête probablement pas assez car il y a de véritables merveilles, auxquelles l'attention portée aux tableaux ou aux antiquités font une ombre qui n'est pas méritée.

I picked this graphic novel up at the library because it was written by Etienne Davodeau and I've enjoyed two of his other books. I didn't realize until after I read it that it's part of a collection of graphic novels by various artists commissioned by The Louvre that feature the museum. The Louvre Collection series has a wide variety of styles. My library has several of them and I hope to read more of them.

The Cross-Eyed Mutt by Etienne Davodeau

I picked this graphic novel up at the library because it was written by Etienne Davodeau and I've enjoyed two of his other books. I didn't realize until after I read it that it's part of a collection of graphic novels by various artists. The series was commissioned by The Louvre and they all feature the museum. The Louvre Collection series has a wide variety of styles. My library has several of them and I hope to read more of them.

This was a fun little story and I loved the artwork featuring some of the exhibits in the Louvre. It was nice to see glimpses of some favorite pieces in the backgrounds.

The story is about a security guard at the Louvre who meets his girlfriend’s family for the first time. The family finds out he works at the Louvre and asks him to arrange for a painting by their great great grandfather's painting placed in the Louvre. The painting turns out to be hilariously bad.

This is a fun little story with plenty of humor and romance. It's rather delightful.

As with his other books, Davodeau's artwork is lovely. It's all black and white drawings but the details of the backgrounds both at the Louvre and in the countryside is wonderful. ( )

The book was going along fine in its low-key way until an unlikely secret society was introduced at the midway point. I liked the glimpse inside the Louvre and some of the family humor, but the protagonist has no arc of development and rarely does anything active in the story. ( )
