Title: Artistic View!
Post by: FR8TRAIN on July 28, 2008, 04:35:35 PM
For those of you who might not know...

The nude photographs featured behind me in my Avatar are some from a very well know German/American photographer by the name of Peter Basch from Berlin, Germany.

(https://www.slybaldguys.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi288.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fll179%2FCalifr8train%2F0728081500a.jpg&hash=6699a7ecba8e88f51cbfd5b2354ed39713a7bafe)

Peter passed away from this world on 3/22/2004. His father was a wine trader who lived here in the SF Bay Area back in the day so Peter, although he was born in Berlin, was an American citizen. Peter had a studio at 33 West 67th Street in NYC. His photos appeared in many major magazines such as Life, Look and Playboy.

Peter is probably best know for his nude photos of Jane Mansfield and Anita Ekberg.

My g/f and I were so very lucky to attend a gallery showing of some of Peter's work at Nickle and Nickle winery here in Napa Valley where we purchased 6 8X10 original photos that currently hang our living room wall.

FYI!

Peace and love!

Those are perched on a wall of Nudes (French paintings, photos, etc) right above the wide screen TV. I think we did that so everyone would have something to look at even when there was nothing on the BOOB TUBE! :*)) :*))
