post moar lewd statues plz

what part of western civilization? unlike every other society it can't be reduced to one book

I guess mainly art

Turner Diaries and The Art of the Deal. Next question lad?

Not a book but definitely watch Kenneth Clarke's 'Civilisation', I'm sure you'd enjoy it. It's all up on youtube.

Which era? Pre-Greek, Roman, Dark Age, Renaissance, Baroque, Victorian, Modern?

...

if you're completely new to art history, you could start with Gombrich's Story of Art (pleb tier) or dive right into Malraux's The Voices of Silence (patrician tier)

Lads, if we were still in the ancient days I'd probably be locked in the dungeon for dry humping statue bunda.

dark age best age

Mother of God.

Will & Ariel Durant's 'Story of Civilization'

10/10 would chisel a hole in between those sublime stone cheeks and fuck

If you can get away with torrenting where you live go to pirate bay and search for the keywords "TTC western" "TTC civilization". Only download from the uploader dohduhdah.
There's a good torrent about western civilization. More than 50 lectures if I'm not mistaken.It comes with an ebook where you can find blibliography references.
You can download these book on tpb itself or from other means like libgen.
I'm not posting links because it might bring problems to mods.

If you don't like torrent/can get away with it where you live

Try this. Also theres book references somewhere.

How many times do you think that statue was fucked?

Anything wrote before 1975

Didn't know the ancients had such good taste.

This one has a penis btw

if you put 'ancient sexy sculpture' into google you get a bunch of degenerate asian shit.

greeks really had class.

...

...

How could primitive humans that could barely plow land were able to sculpt that? Tell me please.

FUCKING SOURCE

not surprised a leaf has no comprehension of human history or culture

...

where did you hear that garbage?

Holy fuck.

This is what reminds me who's superior, CARVING clothe like this is beautiful.

Spengler

Decline of the West

They had a lot of time on their hands.

>who's superior,

cracka plz

this ones for you

Chancey Ives.
American.

I think it's from Museo Cappella San Severo, Naples

Looks like it's the Pudicizia, by Antonio Corradini

but italians are not white.

It's a shame modern western art has taken such a dive.

Even cinema now has gotten incredibly lazy. Hire a bunch of starving koreans to put out mediocre work, everything is lit and shot like cheap TV...There's like 1 or 2 directors still working who put in real effort to create something impressive.

That is untrue.

Papa Mussolini is ashamed by you.

Thank you so much.

youre right, theyre better.

this is basically a current affairs book.

>dem hairs
Fucking hell.

Kek. You can see that the marble on parts of the butt is slightly yellowish, through people rubbing over it through all those centuries.

>all of these statues are canonically 14

The west only became more advanced that the height of Roman civ within the past 400 years or so. They were plenty good at lots of things.
