Pin-up

Pin-up refers to a style of artwork or photography featuring attractive, glamorous models, often in provocative or playful poses, intended to be "pinned up" on a wall for admiration. Originating in the 1920s and popularized through magazines, posters, and calendars, pin-up imagery emphasizes beauty, confidence, and allure. Historically associated with military personnel during wartime, pin-ups became cultural icons representing glamour and seduction. While rooted in commercial art, pin-up also influenced fashion, photography, and popular culture, serving as a form of expression that celebrates femininity and aesthetic appeal.
