An explicit nude photo<\/a> on show at the National Portrait Gallery has attracted just one complaint from over 15,000 visitors in the past three weeks ? and only then for disappointing ‘composition?.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Earlier this month<\/a>, National Portrait Gallery bosses decided parents and teachers should decide whether children view ‘Portrait of my British wife’ by Greek photographer Panayiotis Lamprou.<\/p>\n

The image, a cropped version of which is pictured here, won second place in this year’s Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize.<\/p>\n

?We?ve only had one visitor comment about Portrait of my British Wife so far and we?ve had nearly 15,000 visitors to the exhibition to date,? a National Portrait Gallery spokeswoman told Amateur Photographer<\/em> today.<\/p>\n

She added: ?The person in question didn?t like the composition of the portrait and wasn?t complaining about the nudity per se.?<\/p>\n

The photographer said that when he captured the shot he had not intended for it to go on public display.<\/p>\n

A sign at the entrance to the exhibition indicates that there is nudity on show so that families and school groups can make their own decision about viewing.<\/p>\n
