The human form has inspired some of the finest sculptures in art history, evoking complex reactions in viewers. Magnificent nude sculptures by artists like Michelangelo, Rodin, and Henry Moore elicit awe for their beauty and power, while also stirring emotions akin to those felt when encountering an unclothed body. This remarkable work offers a visual survey of nude sculpture across the ages, complemented by an insightful essay by critic Vicki Goldberg, exploring our varied responses to this realistic art form. While photographs can create distance from the artworks they depict, they also reveal intricate details that allow us to appreciate nude sculptures in fresh and unexpected ways. Photographer David Finn, known for transforming our perspective on art in his Abrams' How-to-Look-at titles, provides stunning images that illuminate the sculptor's creative process and highlight the presence, texture, and detail that contribute to the elegance and majesty of fine sculpture. Finn's acclaimed photography has enhanced several books on Italian Renaissance and contemporary sculpture. Vicki Goldberg has extensively covered art and photography for major publications, adding depth to the discussion of our engagement with these timeless works. The book features 200 duotone photographs, measuring 9 x 11 7/8".
