Coming to Live


Pygmalion by the French neoclassical painter Anne-Louis Girodet (1767-1824). It's really, really cheesy, the rosy cheeks, the divine light and not at last the little cherub.

Seductive Musician


The Almeh by the French Orientalis Painter Charles Landelle (1821-1908).
An Almeh  was a kind of courtesan and entertainer in Arab Egypt. the painting suggests that she has more to offer than only music and poetry.

Exotic Slave Girl


A slave girl by the Polish painter Pantaleon Szyndler (1846-1905). Could be a harem or a historical scene. But I don't think that it matters, the main issue was to have an exotic nude.
