The Embassy of the Argentine Republic to the Kingdom of Sweden deeply regrets the death of Joaquín Salvador Lavado Tejón, known under the pseudonym Quino.
Mafalda, the most endearing character of the Argentine graphic humorist, was also present in Sweden.
For seven years, from 1976, the Mafalda strip starred in the Swedish newspaper series “Dagens Nyheter”.
In the 1980s, 12 Mafalda books were published in Swedish and in the 1990s, Swedish Spanish-speaking students learned about Mafalda in their textbooks.
Thank you very much, Quino!
Forever!
