Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence has posed completely nude with a giant snake slithering around her curvy body.
The photo, posted on Vanity Fair's Instagram page, came from the 24-year-old actress' November 2014 magazine cover shoot taken by Patrick Demarchelier.
The shot, which featured a strategically placed Colombian red-tailed boa constrictor, was meant to pay homage to a Nastassja Kinski photo for Vogue back in 1981 which was taken by photographer Richard Avedon.
Jessica Diehl, who styled the photo shoot, said, "Jennifer has the perfect combination of strength, sexuality, and humour, and, above all, tomboy to pull this off."
According to the caption that accompanied the Instagram post, Lawrence's racy photo would be featured on the March issue of Vanity Fair.
