Julien Mandel , actually Julien Mandel Mandelbaum (born around 1893; died after 1945 probably in Recife , Brazil ) was a well-known art and erotic photographer who worked in France in the 1920s and 1930s and later in Brazil.

Julien Mandel came from a Polish-Jewish family who emigrated to Alsace . He dedicated his life to promoting photography as an art . His classical studies in female nude, Alice Prin , were in France motives postcard used and quickly became collector's items . He was a member of the German avant-garde group New Age in the Open . He signed his photos using the name J. Mandel , which led to a certain uncertainty about his first name, which is sometimes also given as "Julian".

In 1935 he closed his photo studio in Paris and emigrated to Recife in Brazil. There he reopened a photo studio and also worked as a documentary filmmaker and film producer.
