Bondage Stocks In The Harem
I am indebted to Tanos for this pair of harem bondage paintings by Ferencz-Franz Eisenhut, a Hungarian who lived between 1857 and 1903. The first is called “The Pasha’s Concubine” and the second is “Before Punishment” — the punishment in question, judging from the foot stocks, being pretty likely to be some good old fashioned foot caning! (AKA bastinado or falaka.)
If anybody knows where on the web these paintings can be found in higher resolution or larger sizes, links in the comments would be most welcome.

Here you are, at least for the first picture: http://www.artrenewal.org/asp/database/image.asp?id=8891&hires=1
Awesome! Thank you.
And the second: http://www.slaveregister.com/pictures/Tanos/42194.html
You know, you could have just googled ‘Eisenhut “Before Punishment”‘ ;-)
Close but no cigar, PJ. Or did you not notice that’s the same resource I linked to?
Winky emoticon, yourself.
Appreciate the effort, not so much the tweaking me for asking. There’s a hell of a lot of stuff on the deep web that doesn’t come up in a basic Google search. Crowdsourcing searches is one of the perks of having a blog.
So there. :p
Masterful poses. The whip will soon be descending on a beautiful but very naughty bare bottom.
