Some examples of the best female nude drawings, and timeless beauty, by one of the finest artist the world ever saw. I wonder how his 15. century contemporaries and religious leaders appreciated his art.  


I think at least Albrecht himself may have chuckled over the pastiche below. And our modern struggle with nudity, society and religion.

 

Spanish painter Ramon Marti Alsina (1826-1894) must have had Dürer’s drawing in mind when he painted his “Dona della desnuda”. Today, the criteria of female aesthetics, beauty, figure and “health” have shifted considerably. Towards a different type of ‘woman”. Probably all commercially induced and related.
