Scope and Contents of the Collection
Letters, chiefly undated, primarily to Francois Nys, a printer in Paris with whom Rops worked (some dated: 1886, 1891-1892), Henri Liesse, and others. The letters are both personal, arranging for visits and asking for money, and professional, talking of designs on which he was working at the time. The longest letter, which lacks a salutation, describes an amorous escapade and a design for La Vie Parisienne by Robida. Includes seven proof etchings to works published in 1864 and 1866. The collection is in French. Arranged by correspondent |
