Paris Hilton is seen for the FIRST time since revealing birth of daughter London as she dons THREE chic ensembles to plug Paris in Love The revival of interest in Greek and Roman art—which was largely focused on the human body—helped transform workshop practice during the Renaissance. An increasingly systematic approach to the empirical study of nature also encouraged drawing from the nude model as a regular part of artistic training—in Tuscany by the 1470s, a few decades later in Germany, and in the Netherlands by the 1500s. Italian artists of the 1400s drew upon both surviving classical works depicting the human body and recently excavated sculptural masterpieces such as the Laocoön and the Apollo Belvedere. Meanwhile, renewed interest in such ancient texts as Vitruvius’s De architectura (On Architecture), which compared systems of architectural proportion with human ones, encouraged artists to explore the ideal proportions of the body.

The Dresden Venus of Giorgione (c. 1510), also drawing on classical models, showed a reclining female nude in a landscape, beginning a long line of famous paintings including the Venus of Urbino ( Titian, 1538), and the Rokeby Venus ( Diego Velázquez, c. 1650). Although they reflect the proportions of ancient statuary, such figures as Titian's Venus and the Lute Player and Venus of Urbino highlight the sexuality of the female body rather than its ideal geometry. These works inspired countless reclining female nudes for centuries afterwards.

The feminist art movement began to change this, but one of the first widely known statements of the political messages in nudity was made in 1972 by the art critic John Berger. In Ways of Seeing, he argued that female nudes reflected and reinforced the prevailing power relationship between females portrayed in art and the predominantly male audience. A year later Laura Mulvey wrote Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema, in which she applied to film theory the concept of the male gaze, asserting that all nudes are inherently voyeuristic.

According to Clark, the explicit temple sculptures of tenth-century India "are great works of art because their eroticism is part of their whole philosophy".
