The nude figure is a tradition in Western art, and has been used to express ideals of beauty and other human qualities. It was central in Ancient Greek art, and a central position in Western. Athletes, dancers, and warriors are depicted to express human energy and life, and nudes in various poses may express basic or complex emotions such as pathos. In one sense, a nude is a work of fine art that has as its primary subject the unclothed human body. LEGACY ARTWORKS
