Not much is known about Fameni. I could not even work out whether he was born in 1885 [1] or in 1888 [2]. I assume that most of the pictures on this page were drawn in the first half of the last century. They seemed to have been used as illustrations in erotic novels. Looking at the costumes I think that only the picture below could have been used as an illustration in the book of the Marquis de Sade as suggested in [2]. The others seem to refer to a later time period. If you know anything about these pictures and the artist please let me know so I can update this page.
I love these Fameni drawings. They are not just of erotic but also of artistic and historical value. Please send me an email and let me know what you think about these old erotic illustrations.
