Absolutely Gorgeous Nude Photography

These are the most wonderful nude photographs imaginable. They are not as shocking as the Mapplethorpe photographs but they are as artistic and as sensuous as his are. Unfortunately, you have to buy your copy used. That's the way I had to buy mine. I have bought many other nude photography books new but, except for Mapplethorpe's work, none of them are as good as this book. I spent a small fortune on photographer David Hamilton's book new, for example, and I look in Hamilton's book one tenth of the time I look inside this book. This book contains both nude men and women plus couples. You can't go wrong buying this book. Get it while you can as my experience with great out of print books is that the price skyrockets before long.

Tasteful Erotica

The black and white Photos are truly art, and the poetry is well suited to the photos. This is an adult book that stays where I can share it with my friends who enjoy beautiful art and poetry. This erotica is tastefully done and I am sorry that this book is no longer available it makes a great gift for special friends.

Artistic Sex?

How else can it be put? This book is a visual documentation of the beauty of sex. From the nude body to the act. It's erotic, yes, but it's not porn. It's not distasteful. It can be arrousing and beautiful at times, ugly and honest at others. Still, a cetain undescribable sense of art is never lost. The collaborators did an extraordinary job at finding the perfect pictures that capture the essence of eroticism without the trash of pornography. Featured artists include May Ray, Albert Watson, Robert Mapplethorpe, and Lisa Spindler (my favorites) among many others. A definite must for romantics or fans of artistic photography, nudes, or just sex.

Suculent photos married to beautiful erotic text.

This shimmering collection of nudes,male and female,can be debated to be a perfect gift for your love. Inscribed with your own words and pointing to a page of succulent text and a most erotic body you will surely send the arrow home like Cupid.A woman's breast cast upon with a vine's shadow is not far from the lower torso of what's surely a male dancer, toe pointing on a small wooden ball.A jug of wine , a loaf of bread and this.Review this beautiful book of nudes together by a roaring fire.
