Readers, did you know that couples engaging in sexual intercourse were erotica images Rembrandt made during his lifetime? Although it represented but a very small portion of his total output, he intended to sell them but failed to do so because the public wasn't ready for the risque subject matter. After his death, they were sold off discretely to various buyers and over time found their way to museum collections. I am an artist living and working in New York City and I hope you will enjoy reading my book, Naughty Pictures by the Old Masters. I started back in April, 2012 to gather research on the artists who created the most provocative of erotic images and include them in my book. Their stories, such as Rembrandt, revealed so much about their daily interaction in the real world, e.g. what influenced the artist to create his erotic art, what was the public's reaction to any overt eroticism, and were there any artists whom he influenced to create erotic art. As a follower of art history, I find it fascinating to see how their accounts become embedded in the creation of their work and in their interpretations of the theme of love and sex. The artists' personalities are the foundations for their creative endeavor but so is the culture and epoch that they are born into. An artist from the Renaissance period depicted woman differently from a twentieth century Dada artist. As individuals they responded differently to eroticism and they each have their preferences whether it's in a good or bad way. The eroticism can be gentle or savage, i.e., a couple kissing or a rape scene, a couple engaging in loving intercourse or a sadistic, masochistic exchange. The artist can express their erotic fantasies through mythological, historical, or biblical examples and portray them either humorously or horrifically. I believe that the best of erotic art share an essential element that raises it above ordinary pornography and that is a critique of the prevailing societal norms. It is an instructive monologue using visual symbols and codes typical of the artist's time. It's good to have a well-defined format for a project like this and my idea as to the best way to organize the Naughty Pictures by the Old Masters is to have it arranged chronologically from the earliest period to the most recent. The first chapter begins, for example, with the Italian High Renaissance and the last chapter ends with Modern Art. Each chapter would contain a brief bio of the artist, a description of the story, myth, or legend behind the artwork used in the chapter's example, an analysis of the erotic material and explains how the formal qualities of the art contribute to its eroticism, and finally, a full-page Illustration of the artwork including the artist's name first then below, the title of the piece used in the chapter and date of execution (in slightly smaller and italic type). I think this approach is more coherent and educational than simply listing the artists alphabetically and I do hope you the reader will appreciate my efforts. -Rafael Ferran, New York City, February 12, 2013"
