Lower corners bumped and lower corner of the jacket's front panel has a long, closed tear and associated creasing. Protected now in a Mylar archival sleeve. 129 pages plus List of Illustrations. Introduction by Frances Borzello, followed by Author's Note and 121 color plates/ The book's layout mimics the reclining position of the subjects in the paintings presented. From the jacket: "Sensuous, voluptuous, provocative - the female form has inspired artists for centuries, making it perhaps the most popular subject in the history of painting. Since Venetian painter Giorgione's Sleeping Venus, the first notable female nude in Western painting, artists have focused their talents on the infinite possibilities of the representation of the female body. Featuring full-page illustrations of masterpieces of the genre, Reclining Nude is a feast for the senses. From Titian's alluring Venus of Urbino to Manet's challenging Olympia, Reclining Nude provides a fascinating tour of the ever-changing visions of beauty and repose."
