Vintage Tribal Body Art - A Photo Scrapbook

Dozens of early 20th century female portraits, ethnographic photographs of women featuring permanent body art, in digital format. An illustrated album in PDF ebook format for Acrobat Reader, with added rolling slideshow functions, and transition effects between images (great alternative to a screensaver, that you can browse at your own pace if you choose).

Primitive tattoos, fetishist scarification, ethnic piercings, lip plates and traditional ritual body markings. Fascinating and often strangely erotic photos of nude and semi-nude women from South and West African fetish-worshipping tribes such as the Cerere None, Diola, Foulah, Soussou, Malinke and Dahomey, and from the North Africa Casbahs and harems - tattooed Arab, Bedouin and Moorish beauties, as seen by photographers such as Fortier (a great influence on the work of Picasso!). Dancers, witches and sorceresses, chiefs' wives, brides, village beauties.... An unusual ethnographic collection for amateur anthropologists, fans of ethnic curios, tribal magic and religion, ethnology, voodoo and vintage erotica. Postcards and old photos, including color tinted images. (Art corporel, tatouages tribales, feticheuses africaines, scarifiées, piercées.)

Tribes from the Congo, Angola, Mozambique, Zulus, etc. A veritable photo safari, featuring a huge variety of ethnic ladies. Early color, sepia, hand tinted and B&W images - ckassic erotic photographs, prints, postcards.
