The majesty of the human body (pics)

Athletic body equals discipline

The naked human body was not something to be ashamed of in ancient Greece. As the magnificent classical sculptures and beautiful vase paintings show us it was revered and unabashedly displayed. Athletes would run naked during the Olympics. In this beautiful art-portrait photo-shoot ESPN continues to celebrate athletic discipline and hard work by displaying its latest annual Body Issue of the month.  Enjoy
