Neoclassical Slash
I'm presently vastly amused. I don't know if any of you are familiar with Le Sueur's drawing of Capet's execution, but if you're not, you're fortunately about to become familiar with it, because here it is:

I know it's not a very good scan, but do observe that there are indeed two men kissing in the foreground, which I have circled in red so that you might more easily be able to locate them.
I found a mention of the drawing in this book, which on page 74 provides some interesting elaboration on the subject and its portrayal.
That's unfortunately all for the present, but I hope you found it sufficiently enlightening. ;D

It's very nice to know actually, that in the case of the Revolution and Neoclassicism at the very least we don't actually have to invent anything on that score...no subject
Hee. I know. XDno subject
They're so very useful, those Neoclassicists. :D
