High Art - A Love of Nude Male Backsides

[Karl-G]

There is a vey interesting, long article in the NYTimes Magazine today about the 17th century Dutch painter, Cornelis van Haarlem. He had a particular fondness for nude male backsides, and also front sides, which was very unusual for his day. Several good photos and excellent text. I don't know whether the NYT will let you beyond the firewall.
