I am not making this up, although I’m sure someone did. I stumbled over a Russian-language page devoted to old propaganda pictures of a prurient nature, including this “photograph” of Leon Trotsky conducting a public whipping. The Soviets practically invented the concept of “fun with Photoshop” — only they did it with scissors and paste and paintbrushes and photographic negatives. Impossible to say whether this image is a modern whimsy or a Soviet relic:
A memorable image regardless.
Update: Here’s the picture it was photoshopped from.
Here’s an article entitled “The Birch Rod.” Although it’s got some interesting birching trivia, I link to it here because of its amusing disclaimer, which begins:
“This article is neither about BDSM nor pornography.”
When I saw this line, my immediate reaction was to think of the the old Woody Allen quip. You know the one, it went something like this: “What? You don’t think sex is dirty? You must not be doing it right!“
Speaking of ancient punishments, did you notice the whippings in that old text Bacchus linked to, called The Female Husband? After this woman was tried for marrying another woman, and supposedly posing as a man through the effective use of “something of too vile, wicked and scandalous a nature”, this was her sentence:
The prisoner having been convicted of this base and scandalous crime, was by the court sentenced to be publickly and severely whipt four several times, in, four market towns within the county of Somerset, to wit, once in each market town, and to be imprisoned, &c.
These whippings she has accordingly undergone, and very severely have they been inflicted, insomuch, that those persons who have more regard to beauty than to justice, could not refrain from exerting some pity toward her, when they saw so lovely a skin scarified with rods, in such a manner that her back was almost flead; yet so little effect had the smart or shame of this punishment on the person who underwent it, that the very evening she had suffered the first whipping, she offered the gaoler money, to procure her a young girl to satisfy her most monstrous and unnatural desires.
Here’s an old whipping illustration, looks like it might have come from an old bookplate or illustration from ancient pornography. Classical theme, perhaps a slavegirl being punished? Check out that sly glans flare to the top of the column the girl is tied to:
In any case, I swiped it from Darkalities.
Here’s a little public spanking gone too far:
Woman Denies Public Sex Charges
A woman that police say was found in a public park engaged in rough sexual foreplay is denying the charges and says the incident has been blown out of proportion.
Prestonsburg police say they found Melissa Coleman of Pike County and Anthony Scott Ward of Ohio in a compromising position last week in Archer Park.
Police say Coleman was bound to a picnic table with leather straps and was being spanked by Ward with a boat oar.
A park representative says, “They were about 1,000 feet from the playground and the softball fields were not in use. You know we hate that this happened but we can’t always stop these kinds of things.”
Coleman was an outpatient therapist at Mountain Comprehensive Care but has since lost her job.
Coleman and Ward have been charged with disorderly conduct. Coleman is expected in court August 18th for a pretrial hearing.
With a boat oar? OUCH!
Thanks to Attu for the link.
The scale is all wrong on this picture. If that’s a hand mark, the fellow was a giant:
But it doesn’t really look like photoshop work. Who knows?
