Editorial Reviews
Product Description
This seductive volume features a recently rediscovered cache of captivating portraits from another time and place: a golden age of cinema and cabaret in Vienna of the 1920s and 1930s. The Manasses, a husband-and-wife team from the Vienesse beau monde, used retouching techniques to create surreal and noir images that seethe with an erotic symbolism barely concealed beneath a mask of glorious styling, elegant poses, and extravagant costumes. Photographic historian Monika Faber examines this work as part of the world of a cinema-enthralled Vienna, while an accompanying D.H. Lawrence story enhances the erotic climate of the images.


About the Author
Hungarian emigres to Vienna, the Manasses developed a highly successful specialty in erotic photography.

Monika Faber is a curator in the department of drawing and photography in the Museum of Modern Art in Vienna.
