This year sees the publication of two new books: Une odeur de sainteté, published by Mercvre de France, and Bacon, Éclats d’une vie, illustrated by Stéphane Manel, published by Seghers. Franck Maubert works with Stéphane Manel – an illustrator renowned for his work with brands and magazines such as Vogue and The New Yorker – to transcribe Bacon’s life graphically and textually, bringing us face to face with this fascinating artist, revealing the secrets behind his masterpieces and his relationship with art.
Une odeur de sainteté, tells the story of Jeanne Doucet, a “nose” in the service of great perfumers, whose destiny is turned upside down when she is entrusted with the mission of smelling the heart of a saint, Émérence, with a view to her beatification.
Franck Maubert takes us down fantastic paths at the crossroads of the marvelous and the mystical.
