Art history presents a collection of artists that have painted women that were prostitutes. Manet and Picasso are some examples. In 2004, the Guerrilla Girls published a percentage that makes visible the role of women in art history. Less than 3%  of the artists in the Met. Museum are woe, but 83% of the nudes are female.

With a public intervention taken place in the park “La Casa de Campo” in Madrid, The man is the one that carries out the role of object, naked, and the prostitute, the one who accomplishes a life-drawing.  These women got the same amount of money that they usually charge for their services.
