At a Dinner of Atheists 1879

"At a Dinner of Atheists" is a drawing created by Felicien Rops in 1879. This work features a nude woman reclining on a table, with her face hidden in the shadows, suggesting a sense of mystery and intrigue. The composition is dominated by a single, intense beam of light that illuminates the woman's body, creating a stark contrast with the surrounding darkness. Rops' masterful use of light and shadow highlights the woman's form and creates a sense of drama and tension in the scene. This work is typical of Rops' style, which was often characterized by its exploration of erotic themes and its use of dark and evocative imagery. The title is a humorous reference to the woman's provocative pose, which was often seen as suggestive of a sexual act.
