Domme of Decades Gone

» Miscellany

While I’m by no means immune to the allure of the convex and concave magic of a beautiful woman’s body and leather and latex I barely register the supermodel dominatrices guys often post to blogs.

This, found on a vintage photography newsgroup, pleases me greatly.

Early female dominantion photograph

Sadly even the original larger image isn’t much clearer. We’ll try a detail:

Early photo of a female dominant.

The earliest photograph of a dominant woman I’ve ever seen. Mysterious behind her mask, holding one of those canes some of us come to know all too well.

I’m not much one for the idea of BDSM culture really but I do like this sort of an example of the continuity of erotic sensibility. Pity most photos like this were probably long ago consigned to fireplaces.

Interesting. Any idea when and where this photo came from? I’d guess the 1920s.

None at all.

I was hoping you might know.

Mom! I recognize you even with the mask!

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Domme of Decades Gone. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
