Ancient far east erotic art

Description:It is difficult to tell to what extent ancient audiences used explicit erotic imagery for arousal. Prints became very popular in Europe from the middle of the fifteenth century, and because of their compact nature, were very suitable for erotic depictions that did not need to be permanently on display. In the early 16th century, the text I Modi was a woodcut album created by the designer Giulio Romano , the engraver Marcantonio Raimondi and the poet Pietro Aretino. These were crude hand drawn scenes often using popular characters from cartoons and culture. Because of this, the standard pornographic image shifted from one of two or more people engaged in sex acts to a solitary woman exposing her genitals.
