Her. It's her face. No, I am pretty sure it's a male. The image came from a Georges Bataille book : Tears of Eros. I think the photograph was taken in 1910 or 1909 (not sure about the date). Someone gave that photograph to Bataille, and it was the image that took him on his ecstasy=death=sexual trip. Right now there is a good biography that just came out on Bataille. It's on Verso. -- Tosh Berman TamTam Books http://www.tamtambooks.com
