Philippe Dupuy is known for his work as a European comics artist. He is less known, however, for his dabblings in history of art.

Now published as part of the Air Libre collection in a limited print run, the work has taken the form of a huge fold out book of over 23 meters recto verso for a playful  promenade through all the twists and turns of art history!
