Cupidon, William-Adolphe Bouguereau, Oils, 1891 NSFW

This masterpiece by William-Adolphe Bouguereau is what first drew me into art. The way he reimagines the Roman god of love and desire through a more delicate, almost feminine and innocent lens feels deeply captivating to me. Cupidon 1891 - William-Adolphe

Do art museums need NSFW restrictions now? God forbid children see a nipple in between hundreds of violent deaths every day on TV.

Most people don't go to art museums while working...

I'd rather be on the safe side... I don't want any stress with the mods 😅

Religious people are insane so I'd rather have some warnings on art exhibits than them cutting off dicks from statues and replacing them with leaves.
