Dans la vie de Félicien Rops

La vie entière

1870s
Life as a trio with the Duluc sisters
Having known Madame Duluc and her young daughters since the 1860s, Rops begins, not long before the break with his wife, to live as a trio with the sisters Aurélie and Léontine, apparently with their mother’s endorsement. They will live together for more than 25 years, until his death: the sisters run the Paris fashion house Maison Duluc, for which he designs logos and advertisements, and the three twice travel to the United States and Canada to present their fashions.
1871–1898
Travels across Europe and North Africa
During his Paris years Rops travels extensively throughout Europe — from capital cities and art centres to salmon fishing in Norway and Sweden and ventures into the Hungarian back country — and also to Spain and North Africa.
by 1875
Final estrangement from his wife
By 1875 Félicien and Charlotte are permanently estranged — although they never divorce — and Paris remains Rops’s home for the rest of his life.
1877
A flourishing of fame and income in Paris
Rops thrives among Parisian artists and poets: the demand for his illustrations from publishers and authors of the literary avant-garde is greater than ever, and in 1877 he boasts that he is the best-paid illustrator in France; at the Paris salons, where he often exhibits, the public is both fascinated and shocked by his art and his personal life.
1877
Rops’s name on the frontispiece of the “Index Librorum Prohibitorum”
In the “Index Librorum Prohibitorum” (1877) by the British collector of pornography Henry Spencer Ashbee, Rops’s work is featured prominently and his name is advertised on the frontispiece; the reputation of a pornographer attaches to him early.
