Vol 5 St Bartholomew's Eve: Illustrated by H J Draper

   The St. Bartholomew's Day massacre in 1572 was a targeted group of assassinations and a wave of Catholic mob violence, directed against the Huguenots (French Calvinist Protestants) during the French Wars of Religion. The massacre also marked a turning point in the French Wars of Religion. The Huguenot political movement was crippled by the loss of many of its prominent aristocratic leaders.

 From the book's preface written by G A Henty
 (G. A. HENTY (1832 - 1902) published 1893):
"It is difficult, in these days of religious toleration, to understand why men should, three centuries ago, have flown at each others' throats in the name of the Almighty; still less how, in cold blood, they could have perpetrated hideous massacres of men, women, and children. The Huguenot wars were, however, as much political as religious. Philip of Spain, at that time the most powerful potentate of Europe, desired to add France to the countries where his influence was all powerful; and in the ambitious house of Guise he found ready instruments.It gave colour to the assertions of the Guises and their friends that the movement was a political one, and that the Protestants intended to grasp all power, and to overthrow the throne of France. It also afforded an excuse for the cruel persecutions which followed, and rallied to the Catholic cause numbers of those who were, at heart, indifferent to the question of religion, but were Royalists rather than Catholics.
I have not considered it necessary to devote any large portion of my story to details of the terrible massacres of the period, nor to the atrocious persecutions to which the Huguenots were subjected; but have, as usual, gone to the military events of the struggle for its chief interest. For the particulars of these, I have relied chiefly upon the collection of works of contemporary authors published by Monsieur Zeller, of Paris; the Memoirs of Francois de la Noue, and other French authorities"





Draper's work includes 12 illustration for this large historical volume and half a dozen or so study sketches

Volume 4 Bikini
El bikini y yo entramos en el mundo en 1946 y eso es sobre el final de cualquier similitud.

Sin embargo, recuerdo la época de 1960 como bombas de cine comenzó a usar lo que Helm originalmente describió su traje de baño de dos piezas, el traje de baño más pequeño como 'The Atome'.

El bikini de Louis Renard ha estado consiguiendo smallar y más pequeño incluso desde entonces. Una amplia definición de que itsy bitsy traje de baño pequenito weeny como sujetador top y bragas cortadas por debajo del ombligo. Las correas de hoy en día sólo sirven para eliminar la tela y permitir que más piel sea besada por los rayos del sol.








    The bikini and I both entered in the world in 1946. and that is about the end of any similarity.

    I remember at the time of 1960's as cinema bombshells began using what Helm originally described this swimsuit in two parts, the smallest swimsuit as 'The Atome'. The media of the time,  apparently though of the atomic explosion test at Bikini atoll and misnamed the fashion.
    The Louis Renard bikini has been getting smaller and smaller even since then. A broad definition of that itsy bitsy tiny weeny’ as bra top and panties cut below the belly button. Thongs today only serve to remove the fabric and allow more skin to be kissed by the Sun's rays.Can I ever forget you: Marilyn, Gina, Brigitte and so many others? An early image of Marilyn Monroe does grace the print covers of Bikini

Volume 5 Brrr (Winter Fashion)

    The season of Winter, varies greatly dependent to a large part on the distance from the equator. In addition to what could be described as bone chilling temperatures, there is a shortage of daylight and Vitamin D production.

      The ‘Winter fashion’ photo  essay is applicable to areas north or south  of the 39th parallel. Not quite to the extreme of living near the poles but somewhere in between.

     Both Fabric and functionality are important to fashion designers. The old natural standbys of wools, down and  fleece   and slowly being replaced by man made material. The goal is to stay both dry and warm.

     The chosen images are what I imagine can help to keep you warm on a chilly night and that would likely have little to do with the fabric employed in the garments.

Volume 6  Sensual

8 x10" version, English; full color covers, interior b&w

   Our sensory system has been refined over our evolution. It became very important that we developed each of our senses. Failing to do so, may have been the price we paid as a caveman and we decided to eat that piece of raptor steak that had gone off.

  In our internet times, we lose out on smell and taste, at least for now. The sense of sight can become magnified over time, if properly trained in the absence of other stimulus.

  That heighten awareness in one of two of the senses can led to new discoveries as we develop and evolve over the years. Make use of these b&w images to develop an appreciation of the beauty that comes into focus as your fertile mind adds to facets gathered. When engaged with people we will equally come to appreciate that special quality of what beauty is for you.

Volume 7 Silk


  Undergarments and their need have greatly evolved along with mankind over the centuries. This century sees easily over 30 million spent on all types of underwear.

   With that type of cash outlay on an annual basis, it is no wonder that the ‘under’ is slowly going by the wayside as both female and male are displaying more and more of these garments.

   The allure of lingerie and how it make the recipient feel almost defies explanations. Equally puzzling is why the opposite sex is so attracted to glimpse in whole or part of an undergarment. As sensory creatures it is far more than the sight, texture plays an important role.

   Fabrics as well as the cut and research into what both looks good and feels good is the subject of daily innovations. Enjoy a look at a bevy of b&w images of modern undergarments.

Charlotte Guttenberg got her first tattoo when eight years before reaching 65-old. Now Charlotte is the world's most tattooed female senior citizen and living in Florida.

That notoriety  was achieved by being covered or Tattooed a mere  91.5 per cent of her body in ink. While her  partner Chuck Helmke’s body is 93.75 per cent covered in tattoos. At the time of writing this, he lead the Guinness World Records 2017 to officially declare the couple the most tattooed senior citizen female and male, at that moment.

A chance meeting, also points to an unlikely romance, of all places in a tattoo parlour, in late 2006. Guttenberg was  there to ink her first tattoo as a birthday present to herself following the death of her husband not an afficionado of body art. Helmke, his own wife had died a month earlier, had popped into the parlour to see friends. Love took  a year to work its charms after Chuck was asked by the tattoo artist to comfort Guttenberg who was showing signs of discomfort during the long session.

 Other formats available as well as custom sized prints and languages.In the early beginning of man’s journey with body art for the adorning the skin was b&w tattoos. This photo-essay hearkens back to that era with examples of b&w tattoos or ink.Quite possibly, about the same time that man discovered fire, the resulting charcoal could have been used for a black pigmentation for resulting tattoos. In the early start, skin was either cut, scratched or poke with a sharp point. The resulting lesions formed a design to which powdered charcoal was added to provide greater definition to the work of art. 
Later on plants, colored earths and other sources were used to add some further definition in terms of additional colors and shading

Volume 15 Allure from Weis Books Photo Essay series 
Appeal, fascinate and charm can all be applied to a discussion of the human body. This carries even more weight when the female form is added to that discussion.

The human body, by design, is to make sure that mating of the species will take place and ensure the survival of the human race. It then makes sense that the female form especially will not only attract the strongest males. An especially attractive female then would, as a result, encourage such a male to hang around and add to the number of offspring, while offering protection of his prodigy.

Allure visually presents a number of full color images of female forms within our society. We are beyond the survival of the fittest at this time in our development. Clothing, makeup and even plastic surgery now can add to the allure and charm of today’s women

Allure, fascinate and charm can all be applied to a discussion of the human body. This carries even more weight when the human form is added to any discussion. 
The human body by design is to make sure that mating of the species will take place and insure the survival of the human race. So naturally physical appearance, allure and charm come into play, in the selection process.
 Charm visually presents a number of full color images of forms within our society. These forms are presented clothed, for that is normally the way you will come across people within society. So many different looks and yet so many that will present an appeal to your very own eye and perhaps heart.
