Art of the nude: Andre de Dienes

Photographs by Andre de Dienes.

Perfection is finally attained not when there is no longer anything to add but when there is no longer anything to take away, when a body has been stripped down to its nakedness. Antoine de Saint Exupéry

Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting.

Not in entire forgetfulness,

and not in utter nakedness,

but trailing clouds of glory do we come.

William Wordsworth

The pride of the peacock is the glory of God.

The lust of the goat is the bounty of God.

The wrath of the lion is the wisdom of God.

The nakedness of woman is the work of God.

William Blake
