Catalog notes:
In the tradition of Indian erotic art were produced in the nineteenth century albums that contained the various positions described by the Kamasutra. The painting school that more than others dedicated itself to the production of erotic albums was that of Jaipur in Rajasthan, recognizable by the use of an intense blue frame.
