I was doing some research for one of my books and I happened on The Ideal Beauty of the Human Body in Art by G. W. Cichon-Hollander. I'm not going to attempt to hotlink any of the pictures from the slides, but it was a fascinating exploration of what various artists and eras prized in both masculine and feminine beauty.
Also, there's a very...interesting portrait of a man wearing an extreme codpiece. I'm not sure if I should giggle or say "Ow!"
