Notes

This work is untitled: the title has been supplied by the cataloguer.
The following description was provided by James Gardiner: "An Italian published photo-montage in postcard format. A scarce example from this date ( c. 190-) of a commercially produced postcard with an intentionally homo-erotic charge. It is but barely clothed in the mantle of 'classicism' or 'art' which attached to other images coming out of Sicily (from von Gloeden and his followers)at this time."
