Posters with the seventeenth century portrait of the Countess of Oxford were banned from being posted in the London Underground for being too risque. This could become one of the most hotly contested, political nipples in herstory. Feminist herstorians might question whether this custom might actually be something the Countess was celebrating at the time, say, demonstrating a sign of fertily, or commemorating the birth of a healthy new child/heir? Maybe not. Olga Alexopoulou, Oxford MFA, claims that portraits like these were put behind curtains, and used as a form of earlier pornography. Maybe they could put a man of the period, showing his nipples beside her, just to be fair to the modern viewer.
