Author Description

"This anthology contains some of the rarest photographs in the genre of homosexual pornography, pictures which bring to life moments of intimacy and secrecy of centuries past. It includes 'tableaux vivants' (living tableaux), presented to the voyeuristic visitors of exclusive 'maisons closes', brothels and bordellos; a thousand and one nights both familiar and distant... The compendium of 164 photographs presented in this book by Nicole Canet, author and publisher, may also be purchased at her gallery in Paris."--Back cover.
