Items for sale from Artistic Nudes in the Australian Landscape

The Sun Drenched Nude


The Sun Drenched Nude By Gerhardt Thompson \| Published by In Focus Publishing, 2007 To buy this book click on Purchase at the bottom of the page. The Sun Drenched Nude is one of those rare publications that remind us why we love the subject matter at hand so much. It's been too long since such a beautiful and moving vision of the nude has come along. This is a mesmerizing body of work. Each of the seventy-five black & white photographs is a striking marriage of the human figure and the dramatic Australian landscape. The human component is an impersonal one - we never see the eyes or the gaze of the women - but we do bear witness to the elegance of their intertwinement with the environment. And so, in a sense, they stand above us, separate and angelic. Jack Gilbert - Editor Michelle7 The Sun Drenched Nude contains 75 black and white photographs by the internationally acclaimed fine art nude photographer Gerhardt Thompson, a master of the artistic nude in the landscape and a man whose vision seamlessly binds the beauty of the female form with the beloved landscapes of the Australian bush and beach.
