Sittliche oder unsittliche Kunst? Eine historische Revision, mit 60 Bildern
A 1910 Munich art-criticism volume by Ernst Wilhelm Bredt, published by R. Piper, arguing through sixty reproduced paintings about whether nude art is moral or immoral, aimed at educated readers and art critics. The four plates show dense, dramatic figure groups in oil painting: a reclining nude beside a dark mass, a pale nude pressed against a shadowy ground, a tangle of falling and writhing bodies, and a crowded hellish panorama of many small nudes.
