For millennia, sexuality and desire have been portrayed by artists in a variety of forms. Writer Kayla Lords revisits a few erotic art essentials. You may find it whets your appetite for more than just your next scene.
 


Curiosa from the Memoires de Casanova

Aptly called “Curiosa” this piece of erotic art was part of the Memoires de Casanova, part of a multi-volume set released in 1883. If anything, this proves that enjoying a sweet butt isn’t a new development.

Les Erreurs de l’amour collection by J.B. de Lapin

Now when you call someone a dick head, there is a historical reference for it. The artist, J.B. de Lapin's, speciality in erotic art was the surreal - such as an image of a man with a cock on his head. Lapin focused not just on lust, but on sadism.

 

Mystery Artist J. Ashley

Mystery artist, J. Ashely’s work is all over the web: here and here, for example. Whoever the mysterious artist is, their erotic art depicting women in bondage has a vintage feel and kinky tone, especially if you enjoy the idea of women in bondage.

Erotic art is nothing new.

 

The Dream of the Fisherman’s Wife

No list of erotic fetish art would be complete without something a little kinky. How about tentacle porn? In 1814, renowned Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai didn’t use that term, but for anyone who’s been intrigued by creatures from the deep – or the dildos that come straight from the sea – this one is for you.
 

Erotic art is nothing new

Fetish and erotic art is nothing new. A quick look around the internet will give you plenty to salivate over, wank to, and intrigue you. Sure, Tumblr porn is fun - and free - but with a little digging, you can find erotic imagery from every age and in every artistic medium.

don't forget the Roman art, prostitutes and their clients in the Pompeii brothels, and the images of women being enjoyed on samian pottery plus some gay images
