Roger Testu dit Tetsu, is a French painter and cartoonist born in 1913 in Bourges and died in 2008 in Saint-Maur-des-Fossés.
Painter who came to drawing humor, his first drawing appeared in Noir et Blanc in 1951.
Very quickly, he collaborated with the main press magazines such as France Dimanche, Ici Paris, Jour de France, Le Figaro Magazine, Lui or VSD.
Its squeaky irony reflects a cruel image of human existence. Author of several collections of drawings, several exhibitions are devoted to him in France and Belgium.
He won the Carrisey Prize in 1955 and the Grandville Black Humor Prize in 1964.
He is the author of La vie est belle (Glénat) and La vie à deux (seeks it noon).
