TOM OF FINLAND
(8 May 1920 – 7 November 1991),
One of the best known Finnish artists,
Tom of Finand is world renowned for his
stylized highly masculinized homoerottic fetish art,
and for his influence on late twentieth century gay culture.
Considered one of the most influential creator of gay erotic images,
Over the course of four decades, he produced nearly 4000 illustrations,
mostly featuring men with exaggerated primary and secondary sex traits.
Together with Durk Dehner, Tom created the Tom of Finland Foundation in 1984,
to promote and preserve homoerotic art.
