100 years
The illustrated postcard is more than 100
years old. Few years after a small group of photographers started to
sell real photocards...
one step from the first nudes even if there were a lot of
stereocards with the same subject - but they were very difficult to
find.
We do not wish to talk about the postcard
history! We want to write about our times, to look at past - and
lost - times and we want to let everyone to build his own collection.

Credits
We are happy to introduce you
Cyril Fournier, the author of this site.
He speaks about
himself as a graphiste (a graphic designer) even we think he is
addicted to collecting, we found him at the Rastro of Madrid, in
Paris at the Porte de Clignancourt flea market, in London at Camden
Village Saturdays and in the Bermonsdey Fridays, in Rome at the
Porta Portese, everytime looking for nudes. The sellers thought he
was a maniac, but we know it is not true. As we said before, he is
addicted, as a lot of us.

We want to write about our times, to look at
past - and lost - times and we want to let everyone to build his own
collection. A lot of authors wrote
about collecting, some of them were or are great psychiatrist, but
they forgot to speak about the curiosity that comes from this
peculiar subject.
The pictures
If you look for "risque" or for "French Nudes" on
Google or on Ebay you can find a lot of information about early
editors or photographers and how much their work worth. What
you can see on these pages is a small (!) selection of what the
market can offer. |

The titles
We divided the pictures by
subject. So you can
find nudes with mirror, on a chair, lying
down on a sofa, standing showing their bodies or their backs.. on
the bottom of this page you can find the categories on the site map.. |
