“Dr Witkowski's Anus: French Doctors, German Homosexuals and the Obscene in Medieval Church Art” is an essay by Michael Camille published in Medieval Obscenities.
The anus of the title of the essay refers to the buttocks corbel of the Bourges Cathedral first described in L'Art profane à l'église[1] (1908) by Gustave-Joseph Witkowski .
- "The most startling interpretation of this lonely ecclesiastical anus[2] is by a man who can be described as the first great iconographer of the medieval obscene, G. J. A. Witkowski in his L'Art profane à l'église."
