Shiny blonde
I don't know if he's oiled, but this blonde looks a bit shiny. FWIW, I'm fairly certain that
this was made before bodybuilders began slathering themselves with grease.
The young men is an example of what the Greek's termed an ephebe, a young adolescent male. Many of the pictures you post start me wondering about how the picture came about. Who took it, how did the photographer ask or encourage a young man to strip naked for the shot, etc. Every picture tells a story....
Sweat, maybe?
ReplyDeleteSee David's comment.
DeleteI don't think he's shiny from sweat, as nipples and other bits are quite "tight". A light oiling, perhaps?
ReplyDeleteA nice-looking young man.
ReplyDeleteYep.

ReplyDeleteThere's always a story there, and I especially like the ones that make us stop and think.
