The representation of the nude figure was one of the most contraversial issues in Victorian art. This publication surveys the full range of Victorian representations of the nude, both male and female concentrating on painting, sculpture and drawing, but also exploring the artistic depiction of the "naked" body in other media, both "high" and "low", including photography, popular illustration, advertizing imagery and caricature, foregrounding issues of morality, sexuality and desire that remain relevant in the 21st century. L'apogeo della Cultura "Alta", o un assalto alla morale pubblica? La rappresentazione della figura nuda era uno dei temi più controversi dell'arte vittoriana. Questa pubblicazione esamina l'intera gamma delle rappresentazioni vittoriane del nudo, sia maschili che femminili, concentrandosi sulla pittura, la scultura e il disegno, ma anche esplorando la rappresentazione artistica del corpo "nudo" in altri media, sia "alti" che "bassi", tra cui la fotografia, l'illustrazione popolare, la pubblicità delle immagini e la caricatura, le questioni in primo piano della moralità, della sessualità e del desiderio che rimangono rilevanti nel XXI secolo.
