The English Academy
One of the most exciting finds made in the field of erotica in recent years has unearthed a text that appears to complement a famous set of erotic drawings. These are by the aristocratic Mihaly von Zichy, painter to the court of Czar Alexander II and illustrator of Byron and Lermontov: they probably date to the artist's stay in Paris around 1870. The anonymous manuscript of The English Academy was recently discovered on the Continent by a rare book dealer and brought to the attention of Erotic Review Books. It is in the form of an unrestrained memoir looking back on the author's days as a Paris art student. Zichy's drawings, with their exquisitely observed anatomy and wonderful evocation of atmosphere, still have the power to arouse and inspire. He retains a special place in the pantheon of erotic artists.

'Taking my swollen cock in my right hand, I guided the head towards her lips. I dallied with her a little longer, rubbing the crimson head of my cock up and down the little groove and over and around her clitoris, at which she bucked and moaned ever more urgently. And at last, it was she, not I, who seized the moment, and reaching her hands down, she took hold of my member and drove herself hard against it, impaling herself upon me with a stifled scream.'

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.
