Sweet portrait! Wonderful erotic image bearing the GA logo of George Agelou, Jean Agelou's brother. Lovely texture and tone. We've seen this chair used as a prop a few times in Agelou images.
Jean Agelou, the better known of the brothers, is practically notorious for his risque and erotic postcard images of the early 1900s. Born in Alexandria Egypt to French parents in 1878, he was active as a photographer in France from at least the early 1900s. He is best known today for his risque and erotic "french postcards."

He and his brother George produced "legitimate" work as well, and though we've read in a few places that George was not himself the photographer, but only handled the business end of their partnership, we've come across plenty of cards with the identifying logo "G A Paris" (G for George rather than J for Jean) and also a few marked Cliché George Agelou which might suggest that George took a more active role than is sometimes supposed, even striking out on his own for a time.

Jean Agelou and his brother George both died in an automobile accident in 1921.
