The Renaissance Nude review – a sexy, sacred riot of flesh
Royal Academy, London
"Naked men cruise, fight and flagellate, nude nymphs brandish whips, and creatures ambush sleeping maidens. What an astonishing show – I could look all day."
…. "one of the most surprising works here is Dürer’s bathhouse scene, a crowded woodcut depicting male cruising and voyeurism in an outdoor bathhouse in 1496. The ribald scene is as unexpected as it is humorous"
