The Innocence Of Nudity In History

The purpose of this group is to create a gallery of photos and art as a throwback to a simpler time when nudity and the human body were accepted in society and appreciated rather than demonized. A place where the innocence of the naked human form was considered as a normal part of society and not shunned or condemned. This is not a group for you to post your personal pictures unless they are...

The joy of nudity in art and photography

Return to Discussions

Its amazing how over the centuries the pure joy of being nude amongst others has been captured so well.

Whilst 'art' in most places from the earliest of times captures the nude mostly in a functional daily duty and then through the Renaissance we have posed nudes, the joy is still evident.

What I like about this is that as we moved into the era of photography the same philosophy of joy moved forward to.

That joy I believe we all understand to be freedom - to be truly free from any pretences, veils and facades .
