It's from one of Mapplethorpe iconic photographs called "Man In Polyester Suit" and was a commentary on whether black men are just viewed as sex objects.

The model is Milton Moore who was a muse and lover of Mapplethorpe - and this is what he looks like above the waist (this image is from the same collection).

THANKS FOR THE INFO!!
I recall seeing "Man In Polyester Suit" maybe 20+ years ago, but I never knew who the model was. Yet of course, the photos were about the "art"-- not the models.

I had always assumed that "the suit" model was "Taurus"-- an amatuer black model who did an obscure photo shoot to show his legendary endowment. (I threw out those pictures years ago, but still have fantasies-- whew!)

At the risk of aging ourselves, does anyone out there remember or know about "Taurus"?

Taurus was even bigger than 'Man in a Polyester Suit'.
Here's Taurus.

Asa9--
Thanks for the Taurus pics. Do you know for sure that all 3 are of him? The second one is for sure, but the others seem to be models with a thinner physique (despite the huge dick resemblence). In my mind, I always thought Taurus would be over 6 ft tall and a well-propotioned 190-200 lbs. But I never knew his stats or had anything to base it on except for the fact that I like big guys and I might have conjured him in my image. Otherwise, Taurus could be a 5'8/160, which really would make his dick look more impressive!

That second pic is also a real eye-opener. I've only seen solo photos of Taurus and assumed he was a straight guy that did a shoot for money. Wow-- I didn't know he had gay sex. Did he actually do a movie? That would be classic vintage material to see!

I'm not sure about the first because it looks too modern.
Taurus's (real?) name was Maurice Dawes.
He did at least 2 gay porns.

These links are variations on one of them:

I remember another that involved a lot of soap suds, which obscured the action.
That scene was my introduction to him, and I didn't know his name then.
His white partner seems to be the same in both videos.
(Was it originally one very long scene?)

Please post the solos, if they're different from the above set.

Here's Taurus.

I believe the first pic is No Myth who is featured on Rudejam.com. The second pic is definitely the amazing Taurus, and the third pic is an escort from Atlanta that used to advertise on Rentboy.com.

Wow, thanks for the face pic of Moore, I'd always wondered what the rest of him looked like......very handsome! His dick did resemble Taurus' soft dick, who knows....looks like he could very well have given Taurus a run in an erect comparison.
