otheruses La bandenoire The black band were speculative, asset stripping syndicates in the 1820s that bought ancient castles and abbeys at knockdown prices in the wake of the French Revolution , only to demolish them and sell off the building materials. These speculators also bought the works of art of all kinds which they contained, and then broke up the surrounding landed estates into small and often unviable parcels of land. Their dramatic name was invented by the Romanticism Romantic writers. The ruin of such ornamented and ancient structures played to the Romantic focus on scenic locales and tragic histories. La bandenoire is also the title of a well known poem by Victor Hugo , written in 1823 and published in his Nouvelles Odes , also about such speculation.

Image Groud Magie Noire.jpg thumb Gilbert G. Groud signs Magie Noire , 20 March 2006, Switzerland Magie Noire Black Magic is a comics series by the C te d Ivoire Ivorian painter and author Gilbert G. Groud . It deals with the dangers of black magic in Africa . The story is about a father who is married to several women. His favourite wife Zo has only one child. In order to proceed in sorcery and earn a position of higher power he is required to sacrifice this last son. The child is sacrificed in the world of ghosts. In the real world he falls very sick and throws up daily. The mother, who is not into Black Magic, takes the child to a hospital. The doctors can not find out what is wrong. Still the situation of the child worsens. The illustrations were drawn by hand with ink. The mood is sad and dark which can also be seen in the pictures that are painted in green and brown. Pictures showing the real world are suddenly painted in bright colors. This contrast shows the difference between the real world and the frightening, dangerous world of ghosts. Groud converted to Christianity in 1985 but comes from a family that practised sorcery. His point of view is a very critical one. Editions Gilbert G. Groud Magie Noire .
