French photographer Lucien Clergue (b. 1934), has a vast repository of work which has spanned over 40 years. Some of his favorite motifs were Gods and Goddesses, gypsies, portraits of his good friends Picasso and Cocteau, and of course, the female nude.
This image, Sea Nude, Carmargue, 1958, is thought to be a depiction of the birth of Aphrodite, all full of sea foam and come.

Photographer Red de Leon released a book a bit ago with a selection of model poses to help both models and photographers visualize and execute a shoot:
Poses I is a reference book for photographers, models, editors, art directors, and stylists to aid in the pre-visualization of fashion shoots. It contains more than 200 images* illustrating a variety of standing, laying, sitting, crawling, and kneeling poses, with subtle differences in mood and gesture. By showing several variations of shot types, the book attempts to show the importance of framing and articulation of the body.
