Art body nude painting

Description:Other images were more erotic, either symbolically or explicitly. Before the era of Freudian psychoanalysis, children were assumed to have no sexual feelings before puberty , so naked children were shown as symbols of pure innocence. This separation of the artistic form from the social and cultural issues remains largely unexamined by classical art historians. However, in the United States nudity in art is a controversial subject when public funding and display in certain venues brings the work to the attention of the general public. Female artists were not allowed access to nude models and could not participate in this part of the arts education. One of the defining characteristics of the modern era in art is the blurring of the line between the naked and the nude. According to Bram Dijkstra, attractive nudes by American artists have been relegated to storage by museums, with only rare special exhibits or publications in recent decades.
