Dans la vie de Félicien Rops
La vie entière1871–1898
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.
1895–1896
Frontispieces for Mallarmé and Verlaine
For Stéphane Mallarmé’s “Poésies” Rops creates the frontispiece “The Lyre” (1895), and for Paul Verlaine’s “Chair” (“Flesh”) the frontispiece “Parallelism” (1896).
15 June 1896
The review “La Plume” devotes an issue to Rops
The literary review “La Plume” publishes a special tribute issue (no. 172) devoted exclusively to Rops, in which Puvis de Chavannes, Huysmans, Octave Mirbeau, Joséphin Péladan and José-Maria de Heredia praise his work; the illustrations to “Les Diaboliques” and the “Les Sataniques” series are singled out.
July 1896
A will in favour of the Duluc sisters
Anticipating legal challenges from his estranged wife Charlotte, his son Paul and his judge father-in-law, and with his health slowly deteriorating, Rops leaves everything to the Duluc sisters; later, on a doctor’s orders, he spends some time in the south of France, but it brings little relief. The disputes do arise: the sisters successfully resist Paul’s attempts to remove his father from their care, and compromises are reached on other matters.
