Felicien Rops, Laboratory of Lust - The most poisonous berry of Symbolism, a scourge of the bourgeoisie ? many terms have been used to describe Rops?s radical art. Celebrated by writers such as Charles Baudelaire and Joris-Karl Huysmans, he was a transgressive figure who deliberately aimed his works against the double standards of bourgeois society. His pictures ? representing an absolute highpoint of printmaking and draughtsmanship from the period ? invite a critical examination of fin-de-si cle social attitudes, particularly with regard to gender roles.
