The female nude has a long and respectable history, from Botticelli's 'Venus' to the covers of magazines such as 'Vanity Fair' and 'Marie Claire'. Since the birth of photography, the nude has been developed in many ways, some mirroring the approach of the Old Masters, others forging new paths of eroticism and fashion. Photographers, both amateur and professional, seem eternally fascinated by the female form, as are we, the audience, for their work.
This book is a celebration of the best of female nude photography, featuring high-quality colour and black-and-white images taken by some of the greatest photographers of the twentieth century. From early examples, through fashion shots to fetishism and beyond, this is a comprehensive and celebratory collection of the best female nudes.
