OriginalThe Punishment of Lust 1891. Also called The Punishment of Luxury by people that can't bring themselves to say ... you know ... the "L" word;
Reason
It's freaky. For the sin of Lust you get to magically float around naked in the Alps in a child's sleeping bag with a lot of other women who look exactly like you. It might be a bit nippy, and I'd like to take a jumper and some gloves, but other than that it's pretty cool. Google Art Project hasn't been tempted to lighten it so you still get the twilight in the mountains feel.

I'm doing one; I normally note that in the nomination but I forgot this time; I was probably light-headed from floating around at high altitude without my top on. Belle (talk) 00:38, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Great job! I'd see if one could find a bit more secondary sources discussing historical Reception of the work, for a new subsection, but a very nice start. :) — Cirt (talk) 10:53, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
