Lore was first published in 1908 as Durchtolle Nächte, durchjubelte Tage: Der Roman einer Berliner Lebedame (Amazing Nights, Wonderful Days: The Narrative of a Berlin Courtisan), and its author – Richard Werther is a pseudonym – is the same Ernst Klein as penned James Grunert. Like James Grunert, Lore was a commission from the well-known Berlin clandestine publisher Willy Schindler, and both books did extremely well for both author and publisher. Lore was resissued in 1918 as Lore: Das Liebesleben einer kleinen Berlinerin (Lore: The Love Life of a Little Berliner) and in 1921 as Liebesnächte: Geständnisse einer Berliner Fanny Hill (Nights of Love: The Confessions of a Berlin Fanny Hill).

An accomplished engraver with a sharp ironic eye and a whimsical imagination, Maurice François Alfred Martin van Miële (1863–1926) is better known by his pseudonym Martin van Maële.

Luc Lafnet started producing book illustrations in the early 1920s, in a style clearly influenced by Heironymus Bosch and Martin van der Maele, often with grotesque and risqué comic elements.

In 1881 the very respectable Munich publisher Adolf Ackermann commissioned Heinrich Lossow to produce a series of engravings featuring tasteful female nudes with appropriate attendant cupids, with the title Götterdekameron (God’s Decameron), thus neatly referencing both Boccaccio and Wagner. Subtitled Ein Mythologischer Bilderscherz con Amore gezeichnet (A Mythological Satire Drawn with Love), the twelve detailed engravings show Lossow at the height of his skill.
