I think the "Ligne claire" style was inspired by Chinese art. If I'm correct, the article should make that clear.
- You may be correct, but I haven't found any evidence for it. Does anyone have any sources that might indicate this? I can see what Mr. 213... means by it, but I don't want to add this unless I am sure. Mikkel 05:31, 6 May 2005 (UTC)
It might be and the frienship of Hergé with Tchang may have played a role.... Ericd 17:27, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Geoff Darrow
When I merged this and Clean line style, I brought over a reference to Geoff Darrow. In his article, it says that his style is inspired by Japanese cartoons and 1950s americana. Which is correct? Ligne claire or the ones mentioned? Mikkel 05:31, 6 May 2005 (UTC)
- Whoo-hpph! Replying one year later, anyway, Ligne Claire is not exactly defined, but is classified vaguely as an art style with clear lines and spaces that is easily readable, and in those aspects aren't too different from common designs in both Japanese cartoons and 50's Americana. Personally, I think Geof Darrow's style could be a little too stuffed with details etc. to be real Ligne claire (Even more so than his cited inspirations). 惑乱 分からん 23:39, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
