Erotica Unversalis (Taschen 25)

This book has fantastic erotic sketches and paintings. The history of the artwork is interesting if brief. Highly recommend.

hot stuff

I found this book at Barnes and Noble a few years back. I was amazed at how far back much of the artwork was dated. Many of the great masters of the arts have produced works that only so few in the world have seen. It's a shame that people censor stuff like this. If you find a copy somewhere anywhere buy it!!! You can learn much about mans sexuality by looking at the art found in this book.

wonderful gift

This is a wonderful gift. Book full of amazing pictures. I bought one for myself and the second one as a gift to my friend.
