Quote - > Quote - To which Bible are you refering to?  I wasn't aware of any such ban -at least not in the Jewish Hebrew Bible.

I don't know how much different is the Torah from the Old Testament.

Exodus 20:4, Derteronomy 5:8
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above,
or that is in the earth beneath.

Deuteronomy 4:16-18
Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the simultude of any figure,
the likeness of male or female, The likeness of any beast that is on the earth,
the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air, The likeness of any thing that creepeth on
the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth.

Deuteronomy 4:23
Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget ... and mke you a graven image,
or the likeness of any thing, which the Lord thy God hath forbidden thee.

**Deuteronomy 27:15
 **Cursed be the man that maketh any graven or molten image, an abomination unto the LORD,   the work of the hands of the craftsman.

All very fine and good, but were does it ban nudity?  And believe me I knew the Torah, and in its original tongue, and not by way of a long list of mis-translations.

PS: It is a special mitzva to read in the Synagogue every Sabbath Eve the Song of  Songs in its entirity as a reminicence of thespecial love between G-d and his people Israel - and how much more of a graphic discription of physical love can you find. 
It is a grave mistake to try to impress  Christian prejudices, inherited from the Gnostic Greeks, onto the Semitic faith of Abraham.  Judaism believes in modesty, but not in prudery.
