This maybe should go in the Artwork Forum, but anyway..

This statue features the lovers Paolo and Francesca from Dante's work, it is supposedly one of the greatest images of sexual and erotic love, when it was first revealed it was considered dangerous and faced censorship..

Personally I think it's beautiful and incredibly sensual...but I was wondering about other people's views on it..embarrasment confused

i find nothing wrong with it other than it is a magnificent piece of work

subtle yet overtly suggestive
