This richly illustrated volume examines the significance of the nude in New Zealand art. Chesterman describes how the tradition of life drawing and painting has developed from its introduction by European settlers to the present day. She also discusses changing social attitudes towards the nude and the experience of being a life model. The text is based upon the author's thesis at the University of Auckland.
