True Decadence

True Decadence is really two superb books in one: the inimitable art of Franz, Marquis von Bayros complemented by Venus in Furs, the literary masterpiece of Leopold von Sacher-Masoch."Both Sacher-Masoch and Bayros combine the decadent abandonment of the senses to erotic excess with a revelation of the complexity of sexual power. Krafft-Ebing and Freud analysed Sacher-Masoch in their essays on masochism, but his and Bayros' works tell us more about sexual extremes and perversions than we can ever learn from a psychology paper or psychiatrist's couch."Rebecca Roberts-HughesFranz Von Bayros is one of the most mysterious and undocumented artists of the 20th Century and here, for the first time, is a fascinating view of the bizarre sexual anarchy that he created in the sedate and decorous boudoirs of the early 1900s. Powerful females populate his exquisite, beautifully detailed drawings - sexual perversity is rife and the byword is luxurious decadence. With an informative foreword by Rebecca Roberts-Hughes.Probably the most elegant edition of Venus in Furs ever to be publishedTwo books in one. Excellent illustrations of the notorious von Bayros prints, beautifully reproduced for the first time in over 100 yearsAn entertaining 'linking' essay that gives a fascinating insight to the Age of Decadence...
