These are great paintings
In another detail of Hieronymus Bosch’s The Garden of Earthly Delights, to the left of the Prince of Hell, leaning against a leg of the Prince’s throne, sits a nude woman. She faces the glass buttocks of an arborescent creature, whose right rear leg, which is in fact a set of branches, embraces her body. Next to her, to her right, there is a donkey, whose face is reflected in the glass buttocks of the arborescent creature. On second glance, the glass buttocks, appear to be a mirror, and the face of the young nude damsel is reflected in it, next to that of the donkey.

Vénus impudique is a Venus figurine discovered by Marquis Paul de Vibraye in 1864 in the Laugerie-Basse. “Vénus impudique” or “immodest Venus”, is a play of words on the Venus Pudica or modest Venus.
It is a headless, armless and footless ivory statuette, showing a clear incision representing the female pudenda. Her skinny and breastless body shape shows a remarkable contrast to other Venus figurines such as the Venus of Willendorf.
