In an ongoing series, The Advocate’s Christopher Harrity explores artists who eroticized the male figure long before Tom of Finland. This week he’s chosen bisexual surrealist painter Jared French, whose (arguably) most famous painting “The Double” (pictured above) has been the source of inspiration for modern day works, including a 2005 Dolce & Gabbana advertisement.
