Art’s great nudes have gone skinny
Italian artist Anna Utopia Giordano has created a visual re-imagination of historic nude paintings, had the subjects conformed their bodies to what the 21st century considers an ideal of beauty. The results are revealing—and quite shocking in what they say about the modern attitude toward women’s bodies.

oh no no no no D8<

Just to be clear, the woman who made these adjustments didn’t do it because she thought the skinnier ones looked better; she did it to highlight the shocking comparison in beauty ideals.

Jennifer Lawrence is so beautiful, she has a great body that she should be proud of! I think she looks much better un-photoshopped. I’m sure you all agree.

Oh god, what did they DO to her?! Poor bb!

They fucked up with that shit.

What a fucking horrible thing to do for women’s self esteem round the world. My body type is pretty close to the un-photoshopped Jennifer, and now it’s like, EW, THAT’S NOT GOOD ENOUGH, LET’S JUST SLICE OFF THAT FAT, SUCK IN THAT TUMMY, TUCK THOSE THIGHS, DE-PUFF THOSE CHEEKS, SNIP THOSE WASHERWOMAN ARMS.

Fuck you, beauty standards. FUCK YOU.
