TITLE: Set of Three Erotic Boudoir Lithographs, Berlin, circa 1850 DESCRIPTION: A rare and highly decorative set of three original mid-19th-century erotic boudoir lithographs, published by F. Sala & Co. in Berlin and printed by Gebrüder Waldow, circa 1850. The series presents three intimate scenes of women in private dressing rooms and bedrooms, combining fashionable interiors, partial nudity and suggestive situations with a distinctly playful narrative. Each composition is surrounded by an elaborate ornamental border and accompanied by captions in both German and French. The first scene shows three women dressing and admiring themselves before a mirror. Its captions read “Wo speisen wir heut?” / “Où dînerons nous aujourd’hui?” — “Where shall we dine today?” The second shows two women at their toilette, one seated and the other partially undressed. The captions make a playful reference to money, adding a suggestive social dimension to the intimate scene. The third, and most overtly sensual, depicts a partially undressed woman alone on a canopied bed. Its captions read “Keine Hoffnung – Alles dahin!” / “Quand on a tout perdu et qu’on n’a plus d’espoir!!!” — “No hope – all is lost!” / “When one has lost everything and has no hope left!” The bilingual captions are an important part of the series, transforming the images from simple representations of fashionable women into humorous and suggestive narrative scenes. Mirrors, dressing, undressing, private bedrooms and references to dining, money and lost hope give the group the character of sophisticated mid-19th-century erotic and social satire. Offered together as a coherent set of three original period lithographs. ARTIST / MAKER: Bülow, attributed; published by F. Sala & Co., Unter den Linden 57, Berlin; printed by Gebrüder Waldow, Berlin DATE: Circa 1850 ORIGIN: Berlin, Germany MEDIUM: Original tinted and colored lithographs on paper STYLE / PERIOD: Romantic / Historicism, mid-19th century CONDITION: Good antique condition.
