“Paris Eros: The Imaginary Museum of Eroticism”
Hans-Jürgen Döpp
Hardcover • 144 pages • Vibrant pink dust jacket • Illustrated throughout
A sumptuous and irresistible dive into Paris’s long love affair with sensuality, burlesque, and erotic art. This out-of-print treasure gathers rare photographs, vintage postcards, cabaret imagery, 19th-century illustrations, and iconic Parisian ephemera — curated as if you were wandering through a private museum devoted entirely to desire.
The book opens with Paris, the City of Love, setting the tone for a visual journey through erotic imagination, Belle Époque beauty, and the bold artistic spirit that shaped Montmartre, Pigalle, and the legendary Paris cabarets.
Brimming with color plates, handwritten notes, period typography, and historical commentary, it’s both a collectible art object and an unforgettable coffee-table statement.
Perfect for lovers of:
* Paris history & boudoir culture
* Erotic art & burlesque
* Fashion, illustration, & vintage photography
* Rare and out-of-print art books
* Designers, stylists & ephemera collectors
Condition: Very good. Dust jacket shows mild shelf wear (see photos). Interior pages are flawless, bright, and richly printed.
Please note:
This volume contains explicit erotic imagery and nudity presented in an artistic, historical, and archival context. Recommended for mature collectors.
A bold, beautiful, and undeniably Parisian addition to any art library.
