The description of photoabsorption cross-sections of cold nuclei by closed-form Lorentzian models of photon strength functions for photoexcitation by electric dipole gamma-rays is considered. Systematics of the GDR parameters are given and input parameters of different analytical models are discussed The experimental data are compared with theoretical calculations for even-even nuclei using criteria of minimum of both least-square value and root-mean-square deviation factor. Simple extensions of the models with energy-dependent widths to high gamma-ray energies MeV which hold the energy-weighted sum rule for E1 gamma-transitions in good approximation are proposed and tested.
