Cultural relics in Dutch sex museums

The whole exhibition hall is connected by several corridors and stairs, and the design and layout are quite ingenious. The contents of the exhibition can be roughly divided into four categories: painting, photography and sculpture. Most of them are works of art with the theme of sex or sexual consciousness in human history, as well as various paintings of people and animals reflecting reproductive worship and reproductive conflicts in primitive society. The photography part shows pornographic pictures from the beginning of the last century to the present, which is a realistic record of human sexual activities and art, as well as nude statues in Greece and Rome, which are extremely symmetrical and realistic, while a large copper basin on the second floor is very eye-catching and surrounded by penises. There are also some famous historical figures displayed as "sex symbols". One of them is Marta, a female spy who sensationalized the world during World War I? Harry, a Dutch woman, once caused a sensation in Paris by dancing naked, wearing a sheer gauze dress and showing her sexy Marta. In front of her stood a heavily armed soldier, with his hands pointing to the ground and kneeling slightly. In this scene, she was arrested for using her beauty as a spy for the Germans. When she was sent to the execution ground for execution, her beauty made the executioner lose his mind and raised his gun.

The third category is all kinds of sex toys with the theme of sex, mostly from Asian countries, such as erotic paintings and sexual intercourse porcelain in China, while the elegance and exquisiteness of Japanese sex art are reflected in the treasures such as ukiyo-e paintings, masks and ivory carvings in the19th century. And sex works of art made of marble and bronze that reflect Indian religion, sex worship and philosophy, such as porcelain dolls with Indian sexual posture; Statues in sex temples in Nepal and Indonesia are the tradition of sex art and have strong reproductive worship characteristics.

Benin, Zaire and Nigeria in Africa are rich in sexual culture, and museums have precious collections, such as busts and masks used for religious ceremonies. In addition, it also includes a large number of daily necessities, such as kettles, fruit baskets, pepper bottles, plates and so on, which are made into the shape of male and female or human reproductive organs. Most of them are made of materials such as copper and stone, and their expressions are bold and delicate, which shows that people in ancient society also have openness in sexual consciousness that modern people can't understand.

The last kind of exhibits are not high in style, and they are basically all kinds of products derived from the porn industry. Most of these things can be bought in the red light district not far from Danrak Street. After the visit, I feel that the western sex culture is relatively straightforward and has little knowledge. Everyone is also fresh and curious, but I have no special impression after reading it.

Of course, the museum is not full of such antiques or works of art, but a lot of real photos are posted. These pictures do not indicate the source or author at all. Most of the pictures are believed to be a kind of excitement for the opposite sex audience, because they are usually taken in the most direct organ contact, and the color and shape are really disturbing. The most interesting one is actually the silhouette of the earliest gay porn film shot in Paris in 1930s, which is extremely precious historical materials.

The exhibits about homosexuality in the museum account for about a quarter of the total, which is relatively tolerant. The exhibits include Viking stone carvings unearthed in northwest Europe, usually with a pattern of two men kissing or having sex, and words similar to those of ancient Norwegians below. Northern Europe has always had a fierce tradition, especially the pirate countries along the North Sea. Therefore, these stone carvings are usually rough and barbaric. In contrast, murals and erotic pictures from ancient Greece and China are much more exquisite and charming. Those medieval paintings from Japan have a lot of jokes about adults and teenagers. /kloc-in the 0/9th century, impressionist painting became popular in Europe. At that time, artists from all over Europe spared no effort to collect Japanese woodcuts and ukiyo-e paintings, so today, many works of art from Japan can always be seen in European museums. Unfortunately, due to the decline of China's national strength at that time, China's paintings had little influence on western art.
