Joseph Apoux (1866–1910) was a French artist known for his contributions to the world of erotic art and Decadent Movement of the late 19th century, particularly through his series of alphabet illustrations. His work, while often controversial for its explicit nature, also reflects a unique blend of artistic skill and bold exploration of sensuality. Each letter was crafted with meticulous attention to detail, seamlessly combining the form of the letters with suggestive and erotic imagery that challenged societal norms, positions of power, and politics.
