Tom Poulton, artist

Ever heard of a graphics artist named Tom Poulton?

According to Wikipedia, ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Poulton ) Tom Poulton (1897–1963) was a British magazine and medical illustrator who provided artwork for a range of publications including the British Journal of Surgery and The Radio Times. After his death it was discovered that he had also secretly produced hundreds of sketches and finished drawings of men and women engaged in a wide range of uninhibited sexual activity.

Here's one of his works, dating back to a time when naturist resorts were called "Nudist Clubs". He's playfully highlighted the (largely fictitious) problem of the unwanted erection amongst the male club members, something which is often envisioned by those who have never actually been to a naturist venue. The poor guy is in total despair as he fails to keep it down, in spite of (or perhaps because of) the camera poised to take his photo along with his beautiful companions.

Thanks for posting. I’m a fan

Thanks for posting. I’m a fan of Tom of Finland’s work, and I’m guessing he must have found inspiration in Tom Poulter’s works.

Want more?

You can find many of Tom's drawings by simply searching on Google. There are many dedicated websites that cover his artworks.

Thank you indeed Brendarella!:-)

Like his work, it has an erotic yet twee look about it; and to think that those with the resources (money and connections) where able to so indulge themselves! When ‘porn’ is now all but a click away in present time.

The Netflix ‘The Crown’ suggested DofE was involved in the same club as Profumo and others.

These many connections with; a Yachting Tycoon, the Profumo Affair, and the Private Shelf at the British Library of that time; all of interest.

How ‘the establishment’ has lurched from one car crash into another as public awareness of their double standards erupted across our recent history; and the majority became more aware of, and some accepting of human desires, inclinations and kinks.

I happened to watch, Professor Marston & Wonder Women on the flight back from Spain; the film’s connection with Feminism, DISC theory, and BDSM was most enlightening! As well as the utility of lie detectors, and a working knowledge of ‘rope work’!

Interesting blog, sorry late

Interesting blog, sorry late reply, fairly new here. A good friend of mine is an artist who I know has drawn inspiration from Tom Poulton as her specialist subject areas include erotic art and sexually explicit art. She has shown me illustrations by Tom Poulton and other similar artworks as inspiration when I have posed for her.

Tom Poulton book

I have one of his books. 'The secret art of Tom Poulton' ISBN: 9781898998068.
Very good. Beautiful erotica and at times quite explicit.
Recommended.
