The Nude Form in Paintings

I took advantage of opportunities to take pictures of paintings from both the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and Museum of Modern Art showing the nude form. Nothing much to say, except that the human body remains a delightful creation to see, even when drawn in modern, and traditional approaches in paintings. The painters with the corresponding title of their paintings are listed by order of appearance in this posting.
