For those of you that like a little art historical context with your nude art, here's an interesting photo essay by photographer Dennis Felty, entitled "Sensuality and the Nude in Memorial Art".
"For several years I have been photographing memorial and cemetery art from around the world. This project explores the conscious and unconscious themes and symbolic content of the art. At issue is of course man's struggle with transcendence and his own mortality. As the project progressed, I began to discover many very sensual images of beautiful young women depicted in the memorial art in the cemeteries I was visiting."
