Photograph Title
Santorini, 1981 (from the portfolio Greek Nudes in Water)
Notes
Karin Rosinthal is best known for her glistening, abstract female nudes in bodies of water. Interesting to compare with the work of Lucien Clergue.
Rosenthal's photo provides an elegant illustrative metaphor for the subject matter of Eloise Klein Healy's collection of poetry celebrating Sappho, the ancient Greek mother of all lesbians.
