This painting could show the generality of prostitution in the Victorian society at the time, as it can be seen; the woman sits in what can be assumed to be her lovers lap. Indisposed, and without a wedding ring, the audience can assume that what is happening in this painting isn't "Ladylike" for this time period. This piece could also be seen and interpreted as a seemingly act of 'Sexual deviance'.]]> 2023-03-11 05:21:40 UTC https://padlet.com/blurryfacedjustin/viq76qjdwpb22zhc/wish/2512514919 Public Reception blurryfacedjustin https://padlet.com/blurryfacedjustin/viq76qjdwpb22zhc/wish/2512516976 I can only assume that not many were too about this piece, some could think that it shows acts of 'impurity'. I could see many people of this time (1853) seeing this painting and deeming it as inappropriate.]]> 2023-03-11 05:29:07 UTC https://padlet.com/blurryfacedjustin/viq76qjdwpb22zhc/wish/2512516976 works cited blurryfacedjustin https://padlet.com/blurryfacedjustin/viq76qjdwpb22zhc/wish/2512521578 - Easby,  Rebecca.
