Félicien Rops (1833-1898) led an existence and creative activity guided by his passions, audacities and torments. He moved to Paris at the age of 41, and was considered to be the best-paid illustrator in the city. All his artwork denounces the bourgeois hypocrisy, while at the same time transgressing the interests of his epoch, by celebrating eroticism, women, desire, the macabre and adventure. Rops was an excellent observer and painted attractive sea and landscapes, but especially his ironic, caricatural and sometimes indecent lithos and engravings were and still are very much appreciated by the public. This is proven by the success of the Félicien Rops Museum in Namur. Established since 1987 in a 19th Century bourgeois house in the heart of old Namur, today the Rops Museum houses over 3,000 of the artist's works, of which almost 300 are presented in the optimal conditions of preservation and security. This book peers over Rops' master works, approaching the different stages of his life and phases of creation. This guide is a perfect introduction to the life and works of Félicien Rops. Bernadette Bonnier, graduate in art history and archaeology, is director of the Department of Culture of the province of Namur. Véronique Carpiaux, graduate in Romance philology, is curator of the Félicien Rops Museum. Подробнее
