Notes

The following description was provided by James Gardiner: "One of a large series of photographs published in several different formats, both printed and photographic, over a long period of time by the company of Landrock and Lehnert, Tunisia, founded by German/Swiss nationals Rudolf Lehnert (1878-1948) and Ernst Landrock (1878-1974). Many of the photographs portray young subjects, both male and female in a variety of suggestive, though never revealing poses."
