Richard Kern is a writer, filmmaker and photographer that has always had one foot in the art world and the other in the world of pornography. New Nude City is a collection of some of his finest work in New York City, starring a huge variety of gorgeous women from around the world.

Richard started New Nude City in the 1990s and has kept at it ever since. At the time of this review there are 25,300 photographs, 112 movies and hundreds of models that appear in them. All of this material is softcore, with only a few exceptions made for some masturbation/sex toy action. It is also of a quality unmatched by most conventional porn sites in terms of media options and the compositions themselves. Here the nude female figure doesn’t just inspire lust but a sense of awe and appreciation as well.

The photos are divided up into galleries for each model and come in a variety of options to enjoy. You can browse through them online, electing to enlarge thumbnails to 600px (LOW res) or 1400px (HIGH res). The lighting and camera work, as mentioned, is on a level not often enjoyed in the porn world. You can just enjoy these online or download any gallery in a single easy to grab zip file, at either LOW or HIGH res image sizes.

The videos are kept under their own category (the “theater” tab at the top) and they can all be downloaded in a variety of file formats: Windows Media, DivX and QuickTime. The best option in terms of overall quality is the excellent-looking QuickTime files that you can grab as full-length files. These run around 5 minutes in length on average.

The design of New Nude City leaves something to be desired, but after spending a few minutes navigating the different areas you’ll get the hang of it. You can browse content by model, by burrough (SOHO, Greenwich, etc), or stick to just the videos. Each section of the site offers a fair number of filters and search options to apply to that particular segment of the site.

There are no bonus sites included with membership but you do get other extras. These include a journal, bookstore, e-book downloads, e-cards and other goodies. The best footnote is the very, very low price, about 1/3 of what other high quality nude photography sites charge. It’s a great deal for a great collection of content.
