More than just a beach, Cap d’Agde in southern France is a full-fledged naturist town. Here, visitors can shop, dine, and live entirely nude if they wish. The beach itself stretches along the Mediterranean with soft sands and a vibrant naturist community. It’s considered the “nudist capital of the world.”
Why it stands out: An entire community designed for naturists — a rare and liberating experience.
Painting is an ancient medium and even with the introduction of photography, film and digital technology, it still has remained a persistent mode of expression. So many paintings have been limned over dozens of millennia that only a relatively small percentage of them could be construed as "timeless classics" that have become familiar to the public—and not coincidentally produced by some of the most famous artists of all time. We, of course, have our opinion of what makes the grade and we present them here in our list of the best paintings of all time.
