From The English Dance of Death by Thomas Rowlandson. 1815.
Coconino Classics is a beautiful site from Angoulême, France, concerned with the history of the comic strip, or bande dessinée. The site is in both French and English, and it includes the work of many classic artists/illustrators. Coconino Classics and its' sister site, Coconino World, were created in 1999 by an association of writers, illustrators, and screen writers: Coconino & Co. Thierry Smolderen is president of Coconino & Co.
(Coconino Classics and Coconino World may be associated with the students and faculty at L’Atelier École de Bandee Dessinée in Angoulême, which in turn may be part of, or associated with, L'École Supérieure de l'Image (ESI). After a limited search I was unable to uncover any other information regarding the origin of the site, and whether or not it is still being maintained.)
The name "Coconino" derives from the setting of George Herriman's Krazy Kat.
