description: Collected in this portfolio are images from one of the late twentieth century's master photographers. During the 1970's and 1980's, Robert Mapplethorpe created an elegant and provocative body of work - homoerotic images, floral still lives, pictures of children and commissioned portraits - that managed to combine often-outrageous content with an intensely controlled presentation. Whatever the subject of his photographs the aesthetic was always classical, composed; even chaste. Mapplethorpe's work strove for balance and perfection and established him in the top rank of twentieth century artists.
