Nudes through History

I posted a blog on Body Impolitic yesterday that includes a video of fine art nudes from medieval period though the renaissance with  conversation about the difference between nude and naked, objectification etc.  The diversity of the definitions of beauty through time is quite remarkable. (Did a lot of homework on this for Women En Large and Familiar Men awhile ago ago.).
