A suite of thirty erotic watercolour and drawings. Probably Italy, mid-20th century.
30 pencil and/or pen-and-ink and body colour drawings on laid paper (224 x 344mm). (Some genitalia partially deleted). Gathered in two vellum-bound album each with an original pen and ink and body colour drawing on the upper board, the sides with a gilt-ruled border; each in a later vellum-backed chemise and together in a slipcase covered in paper with a repeating dotted rule and foliate pattern printed in red (light wear; stubs indicating that the albums once contained considerably more drawings). Provenance: 'Phillip' (stamp in katakana characters on each inside front cover).
The majority of these drawings — all in the same hand — take as their theme the horrors perpetrated against highborn women by Republican rabble during the French revolution. A second album, also by the same artist but comprising a small number of drawings, is themed on the debauchery of Carnival.
