Sex: Portraits of Passion

Rating:
Summary: Not much to expect
Review: Draws the attention of every person that comes to my house...But it's a ''turn page book'' with nothing much to give. I had expected much more art filled passionate photographs, but didn't like it. Looked at it only maybe twice. Well it's a matter of taste I guess.

Summary: Another delight for Art Lovers
Review: SEX: Portraits of Passion may entice novice fine art book buyers and maybe even curious voyeurs, and that will add to the audience for this thoughtful overview of figurative art throughout the centuries. Perhaps the title and chapter content of the written word will afford a bridge for readers who may not be art lovers, but these days such introductions are always welcome to build appreciation for art history and contemporary art. Generously and beautifully illustrated with paintings, sculpture and photography this little tome is a banquet for discovering new artists among the Old Masters. In the wake of the Brooklyn Museum press, this rich survey enjoys itself, provides beauty, and teases our senses in a way that is healthy, fun, and informative. A natural gift for friends and lovers!

Summary: Tame and Tasteful, NOT Tripple X
Review: This book is just right for those who want a tame and romantic bedside book. The majority of the work is fully clothed couples walking, talking, hugging, or kissing. If you are looking for something very explicit look elsewhere. Only a very small minority of the art work actually show genitalia and there are only two pieces depicting oral sex.
