Description from the seller
First edition, published only in Japan in 1999. A concise yet rich survey of pre–World War I erotic art that rewards both study and connoisseurship.
Compiled within DM Klinger’s expansive series and co-credited with Hideo Aoki, the volume spans painting, drawing, sculpture, and photography across East and West, tracing a moment when sexuality moved to the forefront of science and the arts.
Works by Martin van Maele, Pierre Laranche, Johannes Martini, André Collot, Walter Klemm, and Gerda Wegener appear alongside numerous unknown artists, many sourced from private collections—evidence of Klinger’s scholarly approach and deep grounding in Western, especially decorative, arts.
Beyond its value as a period document, the book offers a useful point of entry for collectors and researchers of erotic art. As a Japan-only first edition in softcover, it holds particular interest on the collectors’ market.
