Nordic Angels

In this unique photobook, the Swedish photographer Gerth Sernelin treats us to three decades of erotic photography. Rarely has the beauty of the nude female body been so candidly documented. Constantly changing fashions are also evident in these photos. In the 1970s, most of the models still had largely untamed, natural pubic hair. In the 1980s, a trend toward trimming and shaving led to progressively shorter pubic hair in narrower patches. Finally, the smooth and entirely hairless pudenda became the new ideal of beauty in the 1990s. Sernelin shows us the most beautiful women in intimate portraits. These angels from the Far North couldn't be photographed more erotically!
