Classic Arts - Various

Maybe I just don't delve deep enough, or maybe it is because most earlier artists were just a little more cautious about the imagary they chose to depict (release?!), or maybe it's because the 'ideal' female form has changes so much over the last 100 years or so - I don't know, but, truth is I find very few 'classic arts' truly as 'sensual' as so many are today. Those selected below are exceptional, and I suspect their creators will have suffered more than a little scorn at the time of release.

This is a gallery I would love to develop over time. Your input would be much appreciated.
