This collection focuses on queer art in its most obvious form: depictions of same-sex intimacy. Some of these pieces were created by artists who had documented gay relationships, like The Bath by Charles Hasselwood Shannon, a scene of nude men conversing intimately in a spa. Others, like the excerpt from the Tuti-nama or Rodin’s Damned Women, were made under the cover of portraying mythological or historical themes, often for straight audiences. While some museums have retroactively labeled these works as gay, lesbian, or queer, most pieces in this collection are not explicitly described in terms of same-sex love. Yet visual signs of homosexual behavior are the lowest common denominator of this selection of queer art.
