Forbidden Pictures.

The nude is and always has been one of the most popular subjects for photography. No one knows exactly when the first nude photographs were taken, but they seem to have first turned up in Paris around 1845 at opticians, instrument makers and art dealers (*). The content of these images ranged widely, from nudes seen altogether decently from the back, in the manner of classical ‘academy figures’,all the way through to brazen displays of genitalia, from sex between lesbians to heterosexual coitus.

By far the greater proportion of the pictures was produced by men, for men. Thus they are representative of the general masculine imagination, or at least what the photographers assumed that to be. To appeal to that male audience, many pictures were taken which portray fellatio. Lesbian activity features less than it would today, but male homosexual imagery is as explicit as it would be now, even though male homosexual acts were considered criminal at the time. Of course, the most popular subject of all is heterosexual intercourse in all its myriad configurations. For the photographer who could capture such scenes, there was then, as there is today, considerable money to be made....
