Published by La Manufacture de livres in 2018, Le Cul de la Femme presents an erotic photographic album assembled by French writer Pierre Louÿs between 1892 and 1914. The collection brings together vintage photographs of the female nude, carefully arranged and annotated by Louÿs, reflecting his fascination with the body and the classification of erotic imagery.
Introduced by Alexandre Dupouy, with an English translation by Tobias Ryan, this edition brings a previously unpublished private collection into print. Combining historical photographs and erotic literature, the book offers a glimpse into the private visual culture of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
