He was a part of several Bohemian art circles in Paris in the early 20th century. He was a prolific writer who sometimes wrote under various pseudonyms, publishing absurdist tales, adventure novels, erotica, and songs. Lucien Boucher (1889-1971) was a wood engraver, lithographer and illustrator. He worked in all media of the graphic arts, but is best known for his wood-engravings and lithographs. He illustrated many books by famous French authors, and is a faithful delineator of the spirit of the text he was commissioned to illustrate.
