The painting was initially considered too sexual for display in the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. "Although nudity in art was publicly protested by Americans, Vanderlyn observed that they would pay to see pictures of which they disapproved." #nude-art #female-nudity-in-art #classic-paintings #artisticnude #photography Nude (art) - Wikipedia
