Seven

Here we have an interesting group of seven sitting in the surf.

 

Stripes

Mmmmm . . . stripes.  Mr. Left makes me swoon.

 

Smile

I think he's smiling because he just got out of those clothes.

 

Rear view

This guy looks like he may be smoking while walking on the beach.

 

Always that one guy

For some reason, the guy at far left is fully clothed.

 

Smile II

Smile for the camera!

 

Pair

I wish I knew the story behind these two.

 

Dune Invitation

Our friend Albert would no doubt interpret this beach pose as an invitation.

 

Buh-Bye

Buh-bye.

Yannis Tsarouchis Day

Greek artist Yannis Tsarouchis (1910-1989) was best known for his paintings of Greek sailors, 

and that's mostly what we will see today.  I am, however, including a few other types for variety.  

We begin with a different version of a sailor painting that I posted over six years ago.

 

Prometheus

This is Prometheus from 1965, and it looks damaged.

 

No title

I don't have a title for this one, but my source says it is from Mr. Tsarouchis' sailor period.

 

Man Dancing

Here we see Man Dancing from 1967.

 

David

David (1974) is utterly G-rated, but pretty nice none-the-less.

I get a feeling that the artist had a personal relationship with the model.

 

Reclining sailor

The settee that this model posed on appears several times in Mr. Tsarouchis work.

 

The Bouquet

The Bouquet was painted in 1955.  For some reason, 

the models kept their shoes and socks on.

 

1957

The only information I have on this one is the year, 1957.

I wish I knew what those spiked obects were.

 

Vision of David

This the guy in this painting, Vision of David, the same David we saw earlier in this set?

 

More spikes

Ending the set with another painting using those spikes as a prop.
