Richard Ranft (1862-1931) was a Swiss painter, draftsman, and engraver. He contributed to 'L'Estampe moderne' and 'La Plume,' for which he produced vignettes and engravings. He also participated in the Salon des Cent, notably with a solo exhibition in 1895. Between 1892 and 1913, he created several illustrations, including 'Mademoiselle d'Orchair' (1892), 'Le Crépuscule des Dieux' (1905), and 'L'Illustre Famille' (1913).
