The series of drawings from “Le lac sombre” (“The Dark Lake”) were inspired by an episode from La Peste Brune (The Brown Plague), a written account of Germany in the Thirties by french writer, theorist and activist Daniel Guérin. There he described his encounter with the Wild Boys, a group from the “Wandervögel” movement, a libertarian youth community which crossed Germany and its history from 1896 to 1936.
