Three of Martin van Maele’s illustrations for the early 20th century kinky novel, La Comtesse au Fouet.
The Countess seems to have been a generalized bossy woman of the Mistress Nan ilk.

I’m guessing the woman with a whip is Spanish because that was the nationality of Antonio Bernal Romero, the artist who drew her. This was a 1974 trading card. I wish I were a European.
Most of Agnes’ work that I’ve seen features women dominating women.
Bruce Tim drawing of Catwoman with a whip inspired by Julie Newmar’s version of the character.

Otto Dix was a German painter noted for his ruthless and harshly realistic depictions of Weimar society and of the brutality of war, he, along with George Grosz, is widely considered one of the most important artists of the Neue Sachlichkeit.
A devil girl with a rose on her pitchfork. Google Translate says the title of the drawing is something akin to “pink Hell.” No explicit female domination but she suggests creative and seductive female sadism to me.
The artist is Henri Gerbault. From Lambiek:
He did no erotic of explicitly F/m art. An illustration from German Surrealist Max Ernst’s Une semaine de bonté.
See Surrealist Corporal Punishment. I posted the original art to the first cover last month. Back then I did not realize that it was from a cover of Weird Tales.
Weird Tales – the original, the title has been revived a few times – was a marginally successful early 20th century American pulp magazine. It is best remembered for publishing H.P. Lovecraft (Cthulu Mythos) and Robert E. Howard (Conan the Barbarian). The magazine also published Ray Bradbury and just about every horror and fantasy writer between M.R. James and Arthur Machen and Peter Straub and Stephen King. Margaret Brundage’s (women in) bondage paintings are the best remembered Weird Tales covers. A few with more femdomish possibilities appear below.
See also Weird Tales Weird Menace Maledom. Having never seen Reflections in a Golden Eye I have no idea why Elizabeth Taylor slashed Marlon Brando in the face with a riding crop.
The movie poster painting is by James Bama a much admired and widely collected painter of Western Americana. Bama is best known to many people for his covers to Bantam Books reprints of the Doc Savage pulps. A miscellany of tough and cruel women in comic books. Eric Stanton wrestling panel:
Crimes By Women
Dungeon of Fire
Crowd pleaser : strap-on sex.
Unquestioned Obedience
Woman slaps man in face.
Obey Amazon Women
Purple Tigress
Sadistic Woman
Lots more Comic Book Femdom.
More Femdom in Outer Space Imagine being the only male slave on a planet that otherwise consisted entirely of women. Would that satisfy you? Would they ever let you sleep?
Another werewolf. I’ve had this scan of an old horror comic book but only just noticed that is has a Boris Vallejo cover. Nightmare was a black and white magazine sized comic that reprinted horror stories from foriegn comic books. By the American standards of the time the art was usually poor and the stories grim and brutal. This was early in Boris’ career (1979). Otherwise the publisher couldn’t havew afforded the artist.
With the rise in popularity of horror-adventure fiction among teenagers fantasies of something like this may be more common than you or idea would expect. Olivia De Berardinis is probably the most popular pin-up artist practicing today. I don’t really know how much femdomish artwork she’s produced. She’s done several images showing Bettie Page with a whip.

I’d never deny the happy cheap thrills available from the more obvious sort of Femdom art but but beautifully drawn elegant women give pleasure on many levels. Since the death of Frank Frazetta, Boris Vallejo may be the most widely admired fantasy artist. He’s certainly very prolific. I don’t know if he ever did anything depicting more emphatic female dominance. On the opposite end he’s done covers for the Gor books.
© Boris Vallejo Vallejo has unquestionable technical excellence and facility but his work has always left me indifferent.
