Adolescence

Gerald Brockhurst's "Adolescence", a seemingly innocent, although highly sensual print, became one of the most important, influential and familiar erotic icons of the 1930s. Few of its admirers, however, could have known the true background to the image.

The model for the image was Dorette Woodward, the artist's fifteen year-old mistress, who was living with the virtuoso etcher at the time. Along with Brockhurst's wife and sister-in-law, she later became involved in Brockhurst's scandalous and acrimonious 1940 divorce.

The original is now priced far beyond the reach of most collectors, and has fetched more than £10,000 at Christie's auction rooms.

opitz The Venetian Carnival

George Opitz's erotic scenes are subtle and imaginative variants of his pictures of Parisian life and the Leipzig Fair. Though he had a sharp eye for the absurd and self-important, the artist's spirit was generous; consequently his erotica achieves that rare combination of being sexually arousing at the same time as being extremely funny.

russellreality Reality & Dreams

For Lynn Paula Russell, the pursuit of pleasure is a serious business. What is more, the giving of erotic pleasure through her pictures is itself an act of love. In this new set of prints the artist deploys her graphic skills to bring scenes of sexual pleasure (and sometimes pain) to life.
