Vesustas: A Tribute to William Etty and the Elegance of the Human Form is a Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab Limited Edition series, running from 18 January 2011 until 21 March 2011.

Nudity in artwork, particularly in classical and representational artwork, does not promote licentiousness or eroticism. The human body itself is certainly not obscene. The artwork in Venustas is a celebration of the beauty of the human body, a source of reverence and inspiration.

There are no smutty images located within this section. However, we do understand that some people may not share our fascination with the splendor of the human body. Thus, this splash page and warning.
