HOMAGE is a unique gift book, created for the woman who appreciates the sensual beauty of the male body. Six female photographers bring to life the very essence of maleness in a way not seen in a gift book before.

Sensuality is as individual to the watched as to the watcher and comes in many different moods and activities, not just the obvious beefcake. When these photographers look at a man, it is with the eye of the artist, following the line of the arm or the tension of the thigh, the rippling of the muscle and the gleam of satin skin.

The photographers present another dimension to the concept of the sensuality of the male body. It is unspoken sexuality that will make any woman (or man) gaze from one superb photograph to the next, evoking a deeply rooted instinctive reaction.

The 18 black and white original photographs are accompanied by a selection of quotes from throughout the ages, chosen for the simplicity of the message: homage.

Jane Austen, Dorothy Parker, Christina Rossetti and Elizabeth Barrett Browning are among the women writers whose words complement the images.
