Salvete ad paginam artis graphicae!

Head of Art Clarence has translated editions of the classic cartoon Fred Basset into Latin. Fred Basset first appeared in the Daily Mail on 8 July 1963. The cartoon appeared  as Wurzel in Germany, Lillo Il Cane Saggio in Italy, Lorang in Norway and Laban in Sweden. He sourced the image files in newspaper comic strips blog, chose the ones he liked and edited them in paint 3d.

If you would like to mention any errors (there are a fe
w, and changing the jpegs is a bit of a hassle), or would like to translate your favourite comic strip into Latin, get in touch with Clarence in the comments.
