{"product_id":"exposed-the-victorian-nude-2","title":"EXPOSED THE VICTORIAN NUDE","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe representation of the nude figure was one of the most controversial issues in Victorian art: the apogee of High Culture, or an assault on public morality?\n\nThis publication surveys the full range of Victorian representations of the nude, both male and female, concentrating on painting, sculpture, and drawing, while also exploring the artistic depiction of the naked body in other media, both high and low, including photography, popular illustration, advertising imagery, and caricature, foregrounding issues of morality, sexuality, and desire that remain relevant in the 21st century.\n\nThough Smith touches on photography and illustration, she focuses mainly on painting, with full-color reproductions of works by \u003cstrong\u003eRossetti, Burne-Jones\u003c\/strong\u003e, and others. The book accompanies a Tate exhibition that will travel to the U.S. this fall, including a stop at the Brooklyn Museum of Art in New York City, where the new mayor seems less of a cultural watchdog than his predecessor.\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eOut of Print.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCondition: Fine. \u003c\/strong\u003eFront and back upper corner bumps on the book and dustjacket.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Watson-Guptill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59643068973342,"sku":"RB6511","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/0684\/7006\/files\/RB6511-exposed-victorian-nude.jpg?v=1784512884","url":"https:\/\/shop.budsartbooks.com\/products\/exposed-the-victorian-nude-2","provider":"Bud's Art Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
