I think it is our common misconception that the Victorian Age was
defined by extreme sexual inhibition in an atmosphere of moral
tryanny, for so many photographers at the turn of the 19th century
regularly photographed nudes, both for science and art.  Photography
was still a new and exciting form of art, when the rendition of the
human form  was seen as a thing of beauty rather than an abomination.
It was the period of Pluschow and Von Gloeden, Sutcliffe ... so many.

World War I changed that idyllic time forever, at least in Western
Europe and the United States.  The airbrush replaced the Pope's
figleaf and nudes were "sanitized" for popular consumption.

I'm not sure why.  Does anyone?
