my wife
 

This is an original oil painting of my wife from a photo done by a friend. I think it is very good. Hope you like it.

No problem Fango - it has sort of morphed into a general erotic drawing/painting thread.

I'm going to be very self-indulgent and post pieces that interest me and hopefully interests you as well - I cam across this pic of a statue - can't find anything out about it - but looks good to me

Sent a pic to them and had this print on canvas made

Looks interesting could you post a fuller picture

Erotic painting with a classical theme was all the rage in the late 19th century - these pictures were copied in early erotic photographs as we can see here.

The pictures are the Harem bath & A favourite Custom - you can see how the photographer tried to follow the idea of what was acceptable to a gentleman at the time

Hans Baldung
 

This drawing by Hans Baldung, circa 1515 was supposedly quite controversial for the period and early Christians. The print is called 'Accepting the Dragon's Fire' and has dark implications. The artist was born in 1484, the year Pope Innocent the VIII launched the Inquisition.

Life imitating art or art imitating life - the woman is Jane Dolinger a fascinating combination of glam model and adventure journalist

sorry
 

Sorry, can't show her face.

Pop art meets porn:

Jeff Koons married Hungarian/Italian porn actress Cicciolina (llona Staller) he created the Made in Heaven series - much of which he later destroyed on their divorce. Cicciolina not only became an Italian politician and member of the Italian Parliament where she infamously would give speeches with a breast exposed. Can you imagine that in the House of Commons or the House of Representatives!!??
