The fourth picture here is really weird. It shows two crippled women in hand carts having a fight. At least one of the women has no legs at all. Why are they fighting? And why are they naked?

A coloured (and reversed) version of this picture appears in the first post in this thread.

The artist is Jean Veber 1864-1928. Here is more of his most peculiar erotica:

Jean Veber | honesterotica

In many ways a century ahead of his time, the French painter, engraver and caricaturist Jean Veber had the talent, the imagination and the courage to depict subjects that others only imagined or kept to themselves.

Jean Veber’s paintings and lithographs were usually preceded by pencil sketches, and he always had a sketchbook with him, taking it to National Assembly public gallery to follow debates, and drawing every stratum of Paris society.

Giant naked ladies are a common theme, and one has a butcher's shop selling human meat!

Even though the second stiletto is missing and therefore it's not a very fair duel, I thought the picture fits into this thread.

Presumably topless female gunfighters ended up on Boob Hill.

Something tells me Willowfall could take out both those girls in about 15 seconds. Even I can tell neither one of them knows how to handle a saber.

Sun's out, guns out!

More mayhem from Paris

I've no idea what is happening here but the referee seems happy to let play continue.

Female duelists is a great genre, I did a few pictures about that theme, a long time ago.

Nice! I'd love to see a few later images of them during the duel - aggressive, determined and sweaty from their exertions..... and with their bloomers shredded and a few bleeding wounds of course

I really like these! 2 women in a gladiatorial fight to the death.
To me it looks like one of the women has a big advantage - she's more heavily armed and she has the shield and helmet to protect her while the other woman is forced to fight almost completely naked - yet she still manages to turn the tables and defeat her opponent

I agree! I love the idea of 2 women fighting a duel to settle their hatred of each other or being forced into a gladiatorial contest for the gratification of their captors.
In the duel scenario, I love the idea of one of the women having a big advantage due to her vastly superior fencing skills. During the duel she humiliates her unfortunate opponent by shredding her clothing layer by layer until she's forced to fight naked - having stripped her naked she then proceeds to finish her off - but again, she prolongs her ordeal, inflicting terrible wounds on her, weakening her before delivering the coup de grace!
