Melania Trump compares her nude modelling to Renaissance art
The former first lady, 54, posted a video on social media discussing her decision to pose naked for magazines in the 1990s and 2000s
“Why do I stand proudly behind my nude modelling work?” she asked, in a voiceover.
“The more pressing question is: why has the media chosen to scrutinise my celebration of the human form in a fashion photoshoot?”
“Are we no longer able to appreciate the beauty of the human body?”
She spoke over photos of renaissance art pieces, including Michelangelo’s David’, Paul Cézanne’s ‘Bathers’, and John Collier’s ‘Lady Godiva.’
The video did not include photos of Mrs Trump nude.
One such image, depicting her lying on Donald Trump’s jet, was published on the front of GQ in 2000 for a feature headlined: “Naked supermodel special!”
