Beautiful buttocks<\/a> They draw attention to their owner and are a source of inspiration for poets, sculptors, and artists. Artists of the Renaissance, as well as sculptors of Ancient Greece and Rome, paid particular attention to the "rear" of men and women.<\/p>\n

We present to you the top 10 most beautiful buttocks in art, according to The Guardian experts.<\/p>\n

<\/span>10. Raphael, The Three Graces\u00ab<\/h2>\n

Where is it located:<\/strong> Cond\u00e9 Museum at the Ch\u00e2teau de Chantilly, France<\/p>\n

\"Raphael,<\/p>\n

The Italian painter Raphael Sanzio once said that to paint true beauty, he needed to see many different women. And the arrangement of the intertwined nudes in "The Three Graces" comprehensively demonstrates the artist's passion for the female body.<\/p>\n

The girls' names are Innocence, Beauty, and Love, and the golden apples that each of them holds in their hands symbolize perfection.<\/p>\n

<\/span>9. Damiano Mazza, "The Abduction of Ganymede"\u00ab<\/h2>\n

Where is it located:<\/strong> National Gallery, London<\/p>\n

\"Damiano<\/p>\n

The theme of homosexuality was quite popular in both satirical literature and Renaissance painting. A striking example is the painting "The Abduction of Ganymede.".<\/p>\n

According to legend, the god Zeus, who was very amorous, abducted the beautiful youth Ganymede, taking the form of an eagle. He carried him to Mount Olympus, where Ganymede became the cupbearer of the gods.<\/p>\n

Just to make it clear that this is about sex and violence, Mazza focuses on Ganymede's bare buttocks.<\/p>\n

<\/span>8. Diego Vel\u00e1zquez, "Venus with a Mirror"\u00ab<\/h2>\n

Where is it located:<\/strong> National Gallery, London<\/p>\n

\"Diego<\/p>\n

Venus's beautiful naked body isn't all the artist has depicted. The goddess's face, sad and troubled, is visible in the mirror. It's as if Venus understands that she is not a celestial being, but a model, forced to constantly expose her buttocks to museum visitors, and wishing she were somewhere else.<\/p>\n

It is curious that "Venus with a Mirror" is the only surviving image of a naked female body by Velazquez.<\/p>\n

<\/span>7. Hieronymus Bosch, "The Temptation of Saint Anthony"\u00ab<\/h2>\n

Where is it located:<\/strong> National Museum of Ancient Art, Lisbon<\/p>\n

\"Hieronymus<\/p>\n

The left panel of this stunning triptych depicting demons and perverts besieging the Christian hermit Anthony features two prominent butts. The first can be found at the top of the canvas, where a man with bare buttocks is visible on a flying ship.<\/p>\n

In the central part of the painting is a strange structure in the form of a human figure on all fours. A procession of grotesque characters approaches, mocking a religious procession. The entrance to the cave, overlooked by a gigantic backside, is believed by some art historians to be the abode of Saint Anthony, while others believe it's a brothel.<\/p>\n

<\/span>6. Author unknown, "The Charioteer"\u00ab<\/h2>\n

Where is it located:<\/strong> Villa Whitaker Museum, Sicily<\/p>\n

\"Author<\/p>\n

This charming statue of a chariot driver is not a nude sculpture, but is dressed in such a tight-fitting outfit that it draws the viewer's attention to every feature of the youth's body.<\/p>\n

It took a genius sculptor to imbue this garment with such exquisite refinement in stone. And, of course, "The Charioteer" is one of the finest demonstrations of the ancient Greek passion for male bodies in general and buttocks in particular.<\/p>\n

<\/span>5. Donatello, "David"\u00ab<\/h2>\n

Where is it located:<\/strong> Bargello Museum, Florence<\/p>\n

\"Donatello,<\/p>\n

When the Italian sculptor Donatello created the first free-standing nude statue since antiquity, he went out of his way to make it provocative.<\/p>\n

The artist wanted to challenge the Church and its disdain for human beauty. However, he still used clothing\u2014in this case, sandals, greaves, and a hat\u2014to emphasize David's physique.<\/p>\n

The real shock comes when you walk around David and see the statue's luscious, smooth buttocks. Art historians have noted a certain femininity and fragility in the youth's appearance. Perhaps this is meant to emphasize that such a weak man could not have overcome the giant Goliath without divine intervention.<\/p>\n

<\/span>4. Michelangelo Buonarroti, "David"\u00ab<\/h2>\n

Where is it located:<\/strong> Academy of Fine Arts, Florence<\/p>\n

\"Michelangelo<\/p>\n

Both Michelangelo's contemporaries and descendants had no doubt that his interest in the male nude was erotic. In life, the master did not deny his attraction to members of his own sex, but he insisted that his adoration of male beauty was spiritual.<\/p>\n

And in "David," this rapturous monument to youth and courage, he portrayed the ideal hero. Unlike Donatello's "David," Michelangelo's creation is shown not at the moment of triumph, but in a moment of reflection, before the impending battle.<\/p>\n

<\/span>3. Titian, "Venus and Adonis"\u00ab<\/h2>\n

Where is it located:<\/strong> Prado National Museum, Madrid<\/p>\n

\"Titian,<\/p>\n

The painting, which tops the list of the most beautiful buttocks in art, is one of several canvases created for Philip II of Spain in the 16th century. At the time, they were considered too revealing and were even curtained in the presence of ladies.<\/p>\n

Although Venus embraces her lover and he pulls away, her backside remains motionless. This expresses her desperation and her determination to hold on to her man, who, the goddess knows, faces death while hunting. Adonis himself is adamant, and his gaze, fixed on the golden-haired beauty, is cold and calm.<\/p>\n

Having created the iconic version of "Venus and Adonis," Titian returned to this subject several more times. However, according to experts at The Guardian, only the first painting deserves to be considered one of the masterpieces of art depicting the most beautiful buttocks.<\/p>\n

<\/span>2. Francois Boucher, "Louise O'Murphy"\u00ab<\/h2>\n

Where is it located:<\/strong> Alte Pinakothek art gallery, Munich<\/p>\n

\"Francois<\/p>\n

In 18th-century France, Enlightenment philosophers advanced new ideas about reason and freedom and discussed them in salons (not salons, as salons refer to a select group of individuals gathering in a private home). The artistic style of this optimistic period was sensual and playful.<\/p>\n

The portrayal of Louise O'Murphy, a young woman of Irish descent, may be overly bold and not at all philosophical, but it is an eloquent libertarian manifesto.<\/p>\n

Incidentally, Louise O'Murphy, who turned out to be not only a beauty but also a smart woman, was the mistress of Louis XV for a long time, and outlived her lover, ending her life at the venerable age of 77.<\/p>\n

<\/span>1. Leonardo da Vinci, "Standing Male Nude"\u00ab<\/h2>\n

Where is it located:<\/strong> Royal Collection, London<\/p>\n

\"Leonardo<\/p>\n

This figure is Leonardo's epitome of male beauty: powerful, stocky, and sporting the finest backside ever drawn. It's so skillfully shaded that when you stand before the original drawing, it appears three-dimensional.<\/p>\n

We've already written about Leonardo da Vinci's most famous paintings, including the "Vitruvian Man," a four-armed, four-legged figure demonstrating ideal human proportions. But the drawing of the standing nude man is even stranger, as the center of gravity of this faceless figure is his rounded buttocks.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
