19th century nude men

Description:Our mission is driven by the need to preserve Bob Mizer's archives, which include over one million photographic works, and his equipment, props, sets, and remaining personal effects. This is the first of a two-part series on early male physique photography, spanning the late 19th and early 20th centuries Although Bob Mizer is recognized as a pioneer in the area of male physique photography, interest in the field predated Mizer himself by several decades. In addition, the foundation holds works by some of Mizer's contemporaries and successors, including George Quaintance, Bruce Bellas, and Dave Martin, and exhibits photographic shows by artists producing works that visually, politically, or otherwise push mainstream societal boundaries. The Greeks imagined their gods to look like perfect humans, and so the images of these deities have an idealising quality that carried through to other subjects too.
