Warrior in Bondage


This picture turned up in my posts recently and is one of my current favourites.
I love the concept of the warrior tamed. The bizarre, forked restraining device has an erotic impact which I can't explain. (or is it an exotic sword turned against it's owner?)

This looks like an image from fantasy fiction which isn't my normal fare but I like this.

The humiliation factor in this image is nicely judged, not over the top but very real. The nudity is understated but still obvious. The hands crossed in front rather than behind suggest forced submission as opposed to the need for restraint of the angry captive. They also give a sense of embarassed modesty. The mature, muscular body (although it's somewhat at variance with the glimpse of youthful jaw) suggests to us that he is a captive of some substance, an experienced, dangerous warrior bought to heel. A worthy conquest.

Sorry I've no information on the artist.
