Goldfish, by Gustav Klimt

A cheeky one from turn-of-the-century Vienna.

Subtitled 'To My Critics' (for all too obvious reasons deriving from complaints about his paintings being too erotic for public display) this is one of a collection of ceiling paintings at the University of Vienna.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
