Constance in love

One of our favourite illustrators is André Collot, and today we have added his drawings to accompany a 1946 French edition of D.H. Lawrence’s notorious Lady Chatterley’s Lover. They show Collot in sensitive, well-observing mode – see them all now by clicking here.

Druuna Xtreme
18th April 2022
You may remember that a couple of weeks ago we brought you a generous offering of Paolo Serpieri’s voluptuous heroine Druuna, but we were missing his most revealing collection, the 1993 Druuna X. Now we have it! Enjoy Druuna in all her glory by clicking here.
Sex, creation, politics …
17th April 2022
Ulf Rahmberg is an important, innovative, thought-provoking artist who deserves to be much better known beyond his native Sweden. He often uses overtly sexual metaphors to convey his artistic and political ideas, which you can explore now by clicking here. Be provoked!
Who is this ‘hot nights’ artist?
16th April 2022
Can you help us solve the mystery of Marc Vincent and his 1960s ‘hot nights’ illustrations? We’re pretty sure it’s a pseudonym, but such an accomplished artist must have done more work. Have a look at his work by clicking here, and see what you think.
Vive l’érotisme!
14th April 2022
A too-little-known Frenchwoman, Henriette Bellair, is today’s new artist. In the 1940s and 50s she illustrated several of the best-known erotic classics; you can see her accomplished work now by clicking here. Enjoy!
Imaginative edginess
13th April 2022
Today’s new artist features the powerful, experimental and often transgressive work of the Paris-based artist Eric Ecrement, better known to his online following as Rajah Foo. Prepare to be excited, and possibly disturbed, as you visit his work by clicking here.

American erotica sardonica
