The Life and Art of Ramah

Born in Saint-Josse-ten-Noode, Belgium, the artist known by the pseudonym Ramah was a self-taught painter and author. Originally named Henri-François Raemaeker, he began his artistic journey as an aquafortist at the circle Le Sillon in 1909. His early career included significant illustrative work, such as creating fifteen etchings for a bibliophilic edition of Emile Verhaeren's Villages illusoires in 1913, and illustrating Charles De Coster's Ulenspiegel the following year.
