“

In the striking works of Pre-Raphaelite, Symbolist and Art Nouveau artists and in their literary parallels, Patrick Bade uncovers an extraordinary, disturbing world of sexual fantasy and a remarkably pervasive image of woman as destroyer. Enchantress, priestess, siren, sphinx and angel of death, the femme fatale became the sinister new heroine of an entire generation and one of the most powerful symbols of change in late nineteenth century society. LAVISHLY ILLUSTRATED WITH PHOTOGRAPHS!!!

This book explores how the femme fatale theme in European art and literature took off in the late 19th century and evolved into mainstream advertising and cinema. It's interesting how a lot of the earlier artists in this genre had this attitude about woman that was reflected in their work portraying them as evil and destructive. It's an interesting read.
