Here we find Tintin and Snowy taking a break from their skirmish with Mitsuhirato. And what better way than a sit down and a bowl of tea, although Snowy seems to have found something more substantial to chew on under the table. We rarely get to see Tintin and Snowy in relaxed mode much to Snowy’s dismay!
Hergé in this image captures a everyday activity, at a café sharing a table with whoever is there. And this model is wonderful in encapsulating this simple moment. Its beautifully rendered and painted. Worth adding to your collection to remind us how to get on with each other.
Taken from The Blue Lotus original 1934 version. Its at that halfway point through the adventure and Tintin has started to put the pieces together for this complex astounding adventure. So who you think is a friend soon turns out not to be and later on it gets even more sinister. Worth reading and reading and reading again.
