The Booty (pre-1893) - Georges Rochegrosse
Etched by Eugene-Andre Champollion, sourced here
Rochegrosse (1859-1938) is above all else the painter of Flaubert‚Äôs Salammb√¥, which he illustrated in great detail with absolute accuracy but a complete lack of understanding. The antique pictures which the artists of the fin de si√®cle offer us are more often than not laborious reconstructions and pretexts to depict nudes. Dreamers of Decadence, Philippe Jullian, page 140.”
