This is Tom Murphy from the exceptional series of photos called The Temptation of Saint
Anthony Is Mirrors. Minor White could have been jailed had he distributed or exhibited
it when it was made in 1947-48. The first full showing of the entire work was at the
Getty Museum in 2014, but it would have been perfectly legal any time after 1968
Murphy has a beautiful bod, but it's that bellybutton of his that is most memorable. Every time you see a foto of it you know its Murphy by White...:)
