Description:
Long before pin-ups, Playboy, or the internet, enterprising Parisians at the turn of the twentieth century turned the relatively new invention of the camera toward the female nude. Artfully posed with classical props or in flirtatious dishabille with stockings and lingerie, the winking models embody the erotic fantasies of a more repressed society. The images were secretly collected and shared among men abroad, leading to the code phrase "French postcards." These lovely ladies inspire coquettish role-playing and celebrate a healthy, voluptous ideal of feminine beauty. French Postcards gives a peek into this lost world of titillation. 144 pages. Editor: Martin Stevens. Hardcover. 2006.
