Fetish: Masterpieces of Erotic Fantasy Photography

The mainstream acceptance of images and icons from the once secretive world of S/M fantasy - dominatrixes, bondage heroines, damsels in distress, and a wealth of other characters - have helped make fetish fantasy photography a legitimate artistic form. Fetish: Masterpieces of Erotic Fantasy Photography collects the best of this exciting genre, combining the finest contemporary images with some of photography's most notable "pre-scene" manifestations - images from 1950s underground and bondage publications; "kinky" creations from the '60s; and glamour work from the '70s and '80s. With 220 color, duotone, and black-and-white images from leading fetish photographers like Peter Ashworth, Chris Bell, Laurent Boeki, Wolfgang Eichler, and Horst P. Horst, and insight into fetish clubs and fashion houses, Fetish will excite connoisseur and curious alike.
