Inspiration is a 1915 American silent drama film directed by George Foster Platt and written by Virginia Tyler Hudson and starring Audrey Munson, an artist's model known at the time for posing for several statues in New York City and the 1915 San Francisco Panama–Pacific International Exposition. It is believed to be one of the first non-pornographic American films to feature full nudity, with Munson frequently appearing naked as a sculptor's model. On its reissue in 1918, the film was renamed as The Perfect Model.
Plot
A sculptor searches for the perfect model to inspire his work. He finally finds his ideal subject: a beautiful but poverty-stricken young woman. When she wanders off, he visits all the famous statues in Manhattan hoping to find her again.
