Where's the line between soft porn and art?

In this instance I would say the line is about 45 degrees when viewed from the side.

Am surprised no one has come up with the three graces yet, this version:

I work right on George Square and see loads of boring statues every day, went past the Wellington one today and thankfully the cone is currently not on his head (I think it looks daft) but it is on his horses left ear!

I got to see the Venus de Milo a couple of years ago,

I found these to be stunning.

Well the 'tart with the cart' (AKA Molly Malone) in Dublin has a cleavage which I guess many Cyclechatters might appreciate:

she could do with a better fitting bra
