Antoon Krings, "Nora petit rat de l'opéra"

Illustration taken from the book Nora petit rat de l'opéra: unique series limited to 30 copies numbered and hand-signed by the artist, accompanied by its certificate of authenticity.

With her ballet flats and pink tutu, Nora is as pretty as a picture. You have to see her trotting along the Avenue de l'Opéra humming at the top of her voice! But one day, distracted, she trips over a manhole cover and there she is, falling into the void. Splash! Right at the bottom, where a family of unsightly rats lives, the nasty Rabouilles. Raoul, their little one, kind, shy and musical, has never seen anything as graceful as this angel fallen from the sky! Nora cries, she is afraid, but he plays her a little song: Tutu pretty tutu turlu tutu... Three little musical notes and these two have found each other for life.

Size 30 cm x 40 cm. Sold unframed.
