[CURIOUS, PROSTITUTION] Scenes of couples with decoration, c - Lot 456
[CURIOUS, PROSTITUTION] Scenes of couples with decoration, ca. 1920. 10 period silver prints, ca. 12 x 16 cm. According to the revelations of a prostitute from the Saint-Denis district, who had worked in the famous brothel and recognized this characteristic wallpaper "with big flowers", this may be a shot taken at "Aux Belles Poules", rue Blondel. Clandestine photographers operated rather in their workshops for obvious convenience and security reasons. But, why not, change the decor sometimes? What is certain is the total interweaving of the two worlds, prostitution and pornography. Attached: 12 postcard-sized pornographies, circa 1920. (22 proofs in all)
