Smudja only recently published an acclaimed comic "Le Cabaret des Muses" (first called "Le Bordel des Muses"; tomes: I, II, III, IV), telling the life story of the French masterpainter Toulouse-Lautrec. The comic is being sold all over Europe and has been published in French, Dutch, Spanish, Serbian, German, Hungarian, Italian and other languages. This was a follow-up to the much-acclaimed comic Vincent et Van Gogh, the epic story about the Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh and his cat.
