Since it was believed up until the WWII that no real portraits of French author Marquis de Sade existed, some imaginary portraits were made throughout history. The most important ones include one by H. Biberstein (to the right), one by Man Ray's Portrait imaginaire de Sade and examples by Clovis Trouille, Louis Binet and Beresford Egan.
In 1885 Henry Spencer Ashbee wrote:
- "No authentic portrait of Sade, either painted or engraved, is known ; those lately issued in Brussels—the one, very badly engraved, in an oval frame, said to be " De la collection de M. De la Porte," the second fairly engraved, representing the Marquis surrounded by demons who are blowing into his ears, signed H. Biberstein, sc, and subscribed, " De la collection de Mr. H*** de Paris —are pure inventions." --Catena Librorum Tacendorum
