The nude is the depiction of the unclothed human body in art, especially in drawing, painting, printmaking, sculpture, and photography.
Originally the term referred to a graphic study of the human body. The nudes of antiquity, in particular, set the style for European art and became popular, especially during the Renaissance
From the 19th century onwards, the nude emancipated itself from its sacred embedding, and the depiction of erotic and everyday nudity became an independent motif.
