Seemingly completely out of place in our time, the existence of the images in this book borders on a miracle. They are the fruits of an intense engagement with the beauty of female breast shapes. Dave Naz is fascinated by natural small breasts. In art history, the Spanish poet de la Serna was not the first to wonder why some women have such small or even no breasts at all. The underdeveloped small breasts of the Amazons also gave rise to much speculation. Paintings of the Virgin Mary during the Middle Ages often depicted the Madonna with a barely swollen breast, a symbol of her beauty. Until around the 17th century, Western painting idealized female forms. The breasts resembled two small Reinette apples, accentuated by a revealing neckline.
