If Hergé's work is speaks to its time, notably in its representation of the media (print journalism, cinema, television), it also refers, albeit in more modest proportion, to the plastic arts (sculpture, painting, classical art and modern art). If Tintin's author is just now getting recognition as an artist in his own right (in 2005 the Centre Georges Pompidou put up an exhibition on Le Lotus Bleu), it wasn't always this way, starting with Hergé himself, who for the longest time, conceived of his work as a minor art. Does this mean that Hergé's approach to fine art in Tintin ought to be seen as symptomatic? Perhaps the fate that befalls the various paintings and sculptures throughout his work offers a partial answer.
