Marquis de Sade by Phantomcollectorchampion

Marquis de Sade

I recognize this! It’s from a set of engravings illustrating scenes from the novel “Juliette, or the Pleasures of Vice,” by the Marquis de Sade. The latter was published and suppressed in the late eighteenth century, but an excellent English translation appeared during the 1960s and has been in print ever since.

The title character, a beautiful and wealthy French baroness, is the wickedest woman ever to be imagined by anyone. She is a serial killer, a murderer probably hundreds of times over, a professional assassin (poison, including one type that gives her victim the most agonizing, excruciating, long-drawn-out death imaginable), whore, torturer, mutilator, arsonist, rapist, kidnapper, liar, cheat, thief, perjurer, cannibal (once), Christianity-hater, and a gleeful participant in every possible perversion, crime, or blasphemy.

She evades any punishment, only growing richer, and more powerful with the “crimes” she commits against innocent and unsuspecting fools. In this scene, the Pope is in St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome (now Vatican City), celebrating a sacrilegious mass with a consecrated host, which he will lead everyone in desecrating and destroying.

This will be followed by an orgy in which the Pope and his French guest will fuck and be fucked by a crowd of gorgeous women and big-pricked young priests, in every hole, on and all around the high altar of Jesus Christ. There are hundreds of pages of this kind of event. I’ve had more orgasms than I can count and shed gallons of sperm in honor of the evil, hideous Juliette de Lorsange, and her brilliant creator, the Marquis.
