The Nude Matured: Body and Spirit explores the hidden beauty of aging and the soft sophistication of the beautiful older woman, accepting and often celebrating her desirability in this image-driven age of unachievable perfection. As part of her master's thesis in the MPS Digital Photography program at the School of Visual Arts in New York City, photographer Judith Monteferrante collaborated with women over the age of fifty to explore their comfort with aging and the beauty of their bodies. Her evocative, rich images capture the enigma, attraction, mood, and beauty of her subjects with an artistic passion and delicate meticulous eye. This updated edition shares the thoughts and emotions felt by these women during this project. As one woman stated, "I left with the feeling that I had been a participant in something meaningful." This collection presents a series of photographs of women over fifty, embracing the beauty and complexities of the mature female nude figure.
