EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Felicien Rops' "Poster for an Exhibition; Affiche pour une Exposition" from 1896. The artwork, created using watercolor and pastel on paper, measures 76x53 cm and is part of a private collection. Rops, a Belgian artist known for his provocative and symbolic works, signed and dated this piece in 1896. The poster features a stunning yellow background with religious undertones, depicting a cherubin surrounded by female figures. It serves as an advertisement or publicity for an exhibition during the late nineteenth century. The composition highlights Rops' mastery of color and technique, with the use of pastels creating soft yet vibrant tones throughout the artwork. The viewer's perspective is from behind the small group of people depicted in the poster, allowing us to see their full-length figures. Notably, one woman stands out as she appears naked but tastefully portrayed. Her back view signifies both vulnerability and sensuality while adding depth to the overall symbolism within the piece. The exhibition poster represents Rops' unique blend of modern art elements combined with traditional symbolism prevalent during that era. Its artistic value lies not only in its aesthetic appeal but also in its ability to captivate viewers through its intricate details and thought-provoking imagery. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this fine art print which offers a glimpse into Rops' artistic genius and serves as a testament to his significant contributions to late nineteenth-century art movements such as Symbolism.
