1962 Brighton Maugham Naughty P Ier Peep Peeping Robin Sea Side Viscount Voyeur Voyeurism Voyeuristic


EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing photograph, Viscount Robin Maugham, a renowned author and traveler, is seen peering intently into a Peep-Show machine located on the Brighton Pier during the 1960s. The image captures a moment of quiet fascination as Maugham, dressed in a smart jacket and tie, becomes engrossed in the hidden world revealed through the small, round window of the machine. Brighton, with its vibrant seaside atmosphere and reputation for being a place of leisure and amusement, was a popular destination for Maugham during this period. The Peep-Show, with its promise of titillation and the allure of the forbidden, was just one of the many attractions that drew visitors to the pier. The Peep-Show, a precursor to modern-day adult entertainment, offered a voyeuristic glimpse into a world that was often considered naughty or risqué. The machine's ability to offer a private viewing experience added to its appeal, making it a popular pastime for those seeking a thrill or a moment of escape. Maugham's expression in the photograph suggests a sense of curiosity and intrigue, as if he is lost in the world that lies beyond the machine's window. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the Peep-Show was a common sight on the British seaside and voyeurism was a form of leisurely entertainment. This photograph is a fascinating snapshot of a bygone era, capturing a moment in time when the line between the ordinary and the extraordinary was blurred, and the allure of the forbidden was a source of both amusement and intrigue.
