American image-maker Saul Leiter was a famously private man, keeping a markedly low profile throughout his lifetime in spite of the widespread acclaim he garnered as a fashion photographer in the 60s and 70s. She went there and stood and waited for about half an hour but he was a no-show. Of course, Leiter did not conduct all his shoots in such an undercover manner, but this anecdote wonderfully encapsulates his unwavering devotion to a natural, unselfconscious portrayal of the human form. Nowhere is this better demonstrated than in his various studies of the female nude — a recurring fascination for the photographer, dating back to his move to New York from Pittsburgh in the mid s and continuing through the early 60s. Bonnard, for example, painted his wife taking a bath, a very sweet domestic portrayal that is reflected in these works.

Nude photography has been a genre of fine art photography since the inception of the medium in the middle of the nineteenth century; depicting the nude human body with a particular emphasis on form, composition, and the emotional qualities evoked by such. Nude photography has played an important role in establishing photography as an accepted medium of fine art practice. Nude photography should be distinguished from erotic photography, although there has been some genre overlap over the years.
