The catalogue Wild Exuberance: Harold Weston’s Adirondack Art describes the paintings: "The nudes deviated from a long tradition of beauty that aspired to perfection. These were no Botticelli or Titian Venuses, but cropped body parts painted as if with earth and flesh, whose primitive honesty complicated beauty with uncomfortably raw emotion and sex. These were not tame, pastoral scenes through which one could take a bourgeois stroll, but the wild. Unlike pretty nudes displayed for the male gaze, these were something more about the woman herself."[5] The series of paintings came to be known as "landscape nudes" after John Marin said, "I feel the woods and the mountains in these nudes."[6] Alfred Stieglitz considered the nudes daring and new, but they were too radical for the Montross Gallery to exhibit.
