Bath time
17 January 2016
When the photographic camera was invented, it was not long before presumably a man got his girlfriend or wife to take her clothes off in order to take nude pictures.

Georges Melies 'After the Bath' is regarded as the first film containing nudity.

A maid prepares the bath for a lady (Mrs Melies, no less) who takes off her various garments and boy there are lots of them before she goes into the tin bath.

As the lady turns back we see her posterior although I do not understand why the maid throws some soil on her. Given the rather cheeky look the maid gives to the camera I cannot help but think that Melies was flirting with the boundaries of erotica.
