Shocked By Lusty Animals Performing Cunnilingus? Don’t Click…!!
Let’s take a closer look at a fascinating Taisho era (1912-1926) album we obtained recently that features a lot of animals performing cunnilingus. The contents of this accordion-folded album reminisces Kobayashi Eitaku’s famous album ‘Nikuhitsu shunga makimono’ that I treated in an article two years ago.
Bestiality
No Taisho era artists who worked in shunga are known by name, but the talented artist of this “bestiality” work left a characteristic red “penetration” signature (Fig.1, 7, 12 and 14) that is also on other paintings from the same era we have in our collection.
Kawanabe Kyosai
So the artist produced more erotic work and is, besides Eitaku, also clearly inspired by the style and wit of Meiji genius Kawanabe Kyosai (1831-1889). The way how the elephant (Fig.4.) uses one of his tusks to make room for his trunk is a lovely example of this. Kyosai often also included such comical signatures in his paintings.
Eyes Closed
Remarkably, all the females in the scenes have their eyes closed and most of the animals perform anal sex, except for the fox and the cat...
‘Phallus-shaped mountains and waves‘
‘A kitsune (fox spirit) observes a young man who is penetrating his lover doggy-style‘
‘A Japanese ox is using his giant tongue on an ecstatic young female with a striking bewildered hair-cut‘
‘A giant elephant is pleasing a young lady using his trunk and tusks‘
‘A flower-girl lying in a grass field is approached by a little snake whose licking her private parts‘
‘An aroused girl underneath a kotatsu heater is entertained by a cat using its tail‘
‘A Japanese chin is performing cunnilingus on its female owner‘
‘A young female is reading a mythological booklet and fantasizes about a giant Baku*‘
‘Doggy-style (clearly inspired by Kunisada’s famous ‘Koi no Yatsu Fuji )’
‘A young female is taken by surprise by a kitsune (fox spirit) and a three-eyed cyclops‘
‘A giant octopus is performing cunnilingus on an ama (abalone) diver using its beak‘
‘ The Moon Goddess Chang’e is entertaining herself using the ears of the Jade Rabbit‘
‘Dynamic scene featuring the thunder god raijin and a female deity‘
