Solved: Guess the Artist - by All. #3: Ernesto Cattoni and the Centro Stile Alfa Romeo Giulia Concept

[Allemano]

This is a bit different as it shows one of the artist's works. He made thousands of drawings like that, but he had another profession as well...
Who is that mysterious artist and what car he can be asscociated with?
As usual one safe point for guessing the right artist. After that the lucky puzzler has three days to find the related car.
If he doesn't succeed the crowd get the chance to steal the additional point.

[Otto Puzzell]

James Thurber?

[Allemano]

Not him.
The cartoonist I'm after is European.

[Allemano]

This artist is closely related to one of the current puzzles.

[Allemano]

.....submitted by a multi-poster!

[Otto Puzzell]

Any relationship to the Paddington Bear illustrator?

[Allemano]

No, the artist is not from England (neither he is from Peru..)

[Otto Puzzell]

 

[ImpishGrin]

Reminds me of Hergé's drawings. Is it by him?

[Ray B.]

Certainly not.

[Allemano]

Ray is correct...
The artist was mentioned in one of the last solved puzzles, by one of our multi-puzzlers

[Allemano]

This car was brown coloured...

[Ray B.]

I searched  the puzzles solved from february to mid-march and couldn't find no brown car that matched.
My search was quite boring, I must say, yet brought up a few gems. I was amazed by the huge number of cars that I had never seen pass on the forum.

Otto's project of "Solved Puzzle Compendium" will never be completed, no wonder. Don't even think of it, Otto, you'll loose your health.

This search was made quite hazardous by the fact that, if I had to search between two dates, I came across puzzles solved much sooner than this, but updated by a more recent post. And I might miss puzzles solved in the right period, but showing in more recent pages of the board by a comment posted last week. If you see what I mean.

Ray is correct...

four days before I posted this comment to be precisely and "multi puzzler" should be a clue as well.

[Allemano]

I'm sorry, but an error occured. Three (3) days is correct! 

[Ray B.]

Ernesto Cattoni.
And your 4 days error almost got me.
Is this the car or do you mean another?

[Allemano]

No, you've got it, the points are yours!
Your suffering is over!
