A French illustrator and engraver from c.1885 until his death in 1926, Maurice Francois Alfred Martin was born in Boulogne sur Seine, France on 12 Oct 1863. He was an obscure artist for many years but that quickly changed after he started illustrating erotic literature under the name he is best known, Martin Van Maele. More than a checklist but perhaps less than a full-on bibliography, this work is as complete as I have been able to make it after years of research. However, it IS a work in progress. Martin Van Maele's erotica illustrations were often unsigned or signed with a pseudonym, done in very limited editions, with the publishers of his work being just as elusive; making it all the more difficult to ever define this list as complete. The book is divided into the types of documents his artwork is found: Books, Portfolios, Periodicals, Cartoons, Bookplates, etc. with each title linked to an example of the artwork (where possible). In addition, there are biographical sketches of Van Maele, Charles Carrington and Jean Fort."
