Sexuality and eroticism are not fiction, but reality.
Even our distant ancestors had special sexual fantasies that have survived to this day. Eroticism and intimacy in art confirm this.
By the way, eroticism in art has been able to convey many explicit scenes in which people of the past took part. Paleolithic cave paintings and figurines date back to prehistoric times. As soon as it appeared, humanity invented erotica. Among the oldest examples of erotic art is the Venus of Hole Fels, which is at least 35 thousand years old. The oldest Venus is not distinguished by the refinement of its forms, but it shows that erotic art originated a long time ago.
Ancient Egypt
Ancient Egypt is the birthplace of sundials, calendars, paper, ink, and pornography. Indeed, the ancient Egyptians apparently knew a lot about perversion. Eroticism in the fine arts of those works that have survived to the present day is often striking in its boldness and frankness. It was in Egypt that the first “prehistoric Playboy” was found: the Turin Erotic Papyrus, consisting mainly of various images of sex scenes. It dates back to 1292-1075 BC.
Sexuality and eroticism
Ancient China
Well, in ancient China, ordinary people were considered unenlightened. Erotic delights created by the hands of printers were appreciated only by the educated elite. This can be explained like this: all the pictures and books were made of expensive materials, so only the elite could buy them. And by the way, erotica began to be censored only when it became available to the entire population. In China, the era of the Han Dynasty (206 BC) is considered the most productive in terms of erotic material. Then, among other things, eight manuals on sex were created. And since China developed along a different path than Europe, these manuals and the pornographic engravings contained in them were used by the entire male population of India.
