[MANUSCRIT] Eugène DEMOLDER - Three contemporaries. Bruxelles, Deman, 1901. Rare and fascinating manuscript of the section devoted to Félicien Rops in his son-in-law Eugène Demolder's book Trois contemporains, published by Deman in 1901. The manuscript includes printed passages, cut out and pasted together, and other manuscripts, sometimes with corrections, erasures and strikethroughs, The work is particularly effusive in its praise of Félicien Rops' work, such as Rops' "master plate" L'experte en dentelles, an etching deemed "as burning with life, despite the peaceful physiognomy of the subject, as when Rops scratches the copper to bring out some sadistic Parisian girl's look", or the comparisons made between Rops' work and that of masters such as Rembrandt or Goya. The author also devotes passages to some of Rops' works in famous collections, such as those of M. Edmond Deman, or the most beautiful of Rops' paintings according to the author: Paysage Ardennais in the collection of the poet Edmond Haraucourt. Of particular note are the exhaustive passages on the "master feminist" Rops' work on nudity, which the author links to his passion for horticulture. Some pages folded, snags, small tears overall only slightly affecting text passages, erasures, crossed-out passages, corrections, handwritten passages interspersed with printed and laminated passages (some printed passages are corrected in pen) annotations and captions ("in italics" or "XXX" "composed" etc.) showing the progression of writing, composition and layout by the author. The manuscript comprises a total of 16 pages, numbered 37 to 52. A particularly touching piece, given Eugène Demolder's great admiration for Rops, father of his companion and at the same time a great artist and personality of his time. Provenance: This manuscript comes from an important collection of documents, including letters and manuscripts, found directly in the house in the demi-lune, where the artist lived for many years with his two dressmaker sisters, Léontine and Aurélie Duluc.
