In "The Homoerotic Photograph" Allen Ellenzweig writes: "Photographers such as Bruce of Los Angeles (Bruce Bellas, 1907-1974) were Homo eroticizing the physique aesthetic, often placing beefcake idols in pairs or using props...to inject the pornographic anecdote as a subtext. His work, crafted at a high technical level, is occasionally quite artful, and his mannered studio imagery has exerted a considerable influence on later portrayers of the male nude,including Robert Mapplethorpe and Herb Ritts."
