SIGNE CAMBRONNE / REVERS / DE LA / MEDAILLE / 15 JUIN 1858. Considered a pioneer within Belgian comics, Félicien Rops was a versatile artist active during the late 1800s. Associated with the Symbolism art movement, Rops was an oil painter and print maker, though most notably an illustrator and caricaturist. His work is touted as the first Belgian examples of both a text comic and comic strips based on a recurring character.
