Realism

Aesthetic or not, reality exists independently of any external observers. In the visual arts the term denotes any approach that depicts what the eye can see, such as in American realism, a turn of the 20th century idea in arts, Classical Realism, an artistic movement in late 20th Century that valued beauty and artistic skill. It gets a lot more real when the model is nude, don’t you think?
