Renowned male physique photographer Louis LaSalle’s first coffee-table book is a stunning collection of images of guys with physiques not unlike the statues of the ancient Greeks.
Louis LaSalle doesn’t take pictures of just mere mortals. LaSalle is a man obsessed with human perfection and his subjects, fitness models and body builders, possess godlike bodies. When asked what he looks for in a model, his answer was, “Definition, Definition, Definition… Did I mention definition?”
“The perfect male nude to me is one I react to twice,” LaSalle said. “Once with ‘Wow that’s beautiful,’ and then again with ‘Fuck that’s hot!’” And that sums up our reaction to the photographs in this beautiful book.
