Bibliothek des Blicks / Die Sammlung E. J

Only rarely do collections like E.J.'s reach posterity due to the caution of relatives who wish to preserve their good reputation and suppress or deny homoerotic and homosexual inclinations. It is only because E.J. was single and the collection came into the hands of the Viennese gallery owner Hubert Winter through an intermediary that it has been preserved. It was publicly displayed for the first time as his loan in the Frankfurt exhibition "The Nude Photograph.".
