Rare Jacques Bourboulon photobook published privately by the elusive Japanese publisher Nippon Geijutsu Shuppansha (NGS), a somewhat mysterious company now known among collectors for its luxurious erotic art editions and exceptionally high production standards. Complete with its original premium slipcase, this edition feels more like a crafted art object than a conventional book: from the elegant presentation to the thick, richly printed paper stock that gives every photograph remarkable depth and texture.

Featuring Bourboulon’s iconic soft natural-light photography and refined sensual compositions, this title has become increasingly difficult to locate. NGS publications were produced in relatively small numbers and circulated mainly through specialty collectors' channels in Japan, making surviving copies highly sought after today. A scarce and beautiful collector’s piece for admirers of vintage European glamour photography, rare Japanese photobooks, and private press publishing.
