Is that bed made just for fucking or did they move the mattress so it's better for fucking?
If anything, it looks worse. Every thrust causing someone to slide down is pretty awful. Readjusting every 15 seconds seems so utterly miserable that the ground with an angry cat would be an improvement.
You must be older than the couple in the piece?

I mean, yeah. That’s why I know to shut out the animals and maintain traction
This needs to go on a plaque 😂
I was about to ask, is it a bed, a chair, a couch?! What kind of angle is that for any kind of furniture?
(Just a guess)
I had to look it up I thought the same thing
Doesn't look like it but that's a cool bed regardless.
Could be a mattress on whatever the alcove there by the fireplace may have been used for. The woman’s shoulders are resting down against something that makes the position awkward.
I tried to find anything similar, the trundle bed is a bed from that time period.
Looked up “tiered bed 1860” lol
Some of these electronic beds could do it today but not like this.
To be fair it also looks like a fancy couch or a church pew with a futon on top.
