Overexposed
While most of us would say a nude male model can never be overexposed,
the shutter speed on this Schulz photo leaves a lot to be desired.
I cannot but agree in respect of the overexposure, but it does give the study a very dreamy quality and makes the model look even more ethereal. Rather in season I would have evoked a Midsummer Night's Dream but that was in Anthens.
Go, Philostrate, Stir up the Athenian youth to merriments. Awake the pert and nimble spirit of mirth. Turn melancholy forth to funerals; The pale companion is not for our pomp.

Well, I can't argue about the dreaminess, so thanks for that perspective.
