NEW VISCOUNT EROTIC ART COLLECTION - CASANOVA LIMITED EDITION FOUNTAIN PEN - CHOICE OF MEDIUM OR BROAD NIBS
EROTIC ART COLLECTION
A collection of pens
devoted to erotic art and inspired by... the pocket watch!
In the olden days,
pocket watches had opening cases whose covers concealed an erotic picture on
the inside. We have created a pen
which, just like a watch, has a barrel divided into two sections that allow
access to its mechanical parts and conceals an erotic painting on the inside. Concealing an erotic picture
might raise a smile in an era when nudity is so freely available on the web,
but we liked the idea and it harks back to an age when there was less
pornography but possibly far more eroticism!
Nor did Visconti stop at just
a picture. Thanks to technology, we have
also built a touch of healthy voyeurism into each pen. A keyhole pierced just behind
the clip allows aspiring peeping Toms to view an erotic scene made by laser using
nanotechnology.
Visconti has chosen three
themes that we consider to be classics of eroticism as an art form: Casanova, Shunga, and the Kamasutra.
Casanova, the great
Venetian lover represents the typically Italian and extremely romantic and
elegant "whispered" eroticism that was so popular in high society in
the late 18th and early 19th centuries;
Shunga, a Sino-Japanese
form of erotic art dating from the 17th to the 19th
centuries were fully-fledged erotic instruction manuals intended for young
wives as a form of sex education, but also for troops setting out for war;
And the Kamasutra needs
neither introduction nor explanation.
One has but to recall that while sexual liberation hit the West in the 1970s, it had occurred in India 2,000 years earlier if we consider that the
Kamasutra was written sometime between 400 BC and 200 AD!
