Rops biography

Six hundred original engravings of Félicien Rops were enumerated in Erastène Ramiro's (whose real name is Eugene Rodrigues) Catalogue of Rops' Engraved Work (Paris, Conquet, 1887), and one hundred and eighty from lithographs (Ramiro's Catalogue of Rops' Lithographs, Paris, Conquet, 1891)

"Giving his figures a character of grace which never lapses into limpness," says his biographer, Erastène Ramiro, "he has analysed and perpetuated the human form in all the elegance and development impressed on it by modern civilization."
