Dancer with a veil by Armand Rassenfosse (1862-1934).
Born in Liège to parents who were art and antiques dealers, Rassenfosse was immersed in the artistic and cultural milieu of the ardent city. He trained himself in the art of drawing, but his meeting with Félicien Rops in Paris was decisive in his career. A prolific exchange began between the two artists which led to the development of engraving processes and a deep friendship. Rassenfosse drew relentlessly throughout his life, mainly women, the main source of his inspiration and aesthetic research.
Armand Rassenfosse was famous as a poster artist, engraver, drawer and also painter during the second half of his life.
