The Stolen Kiss is an oil painting on canvas historically attributed to the French painter Jean-Honoré Fragonard. Painted in the late 1780s in a style characteristic of the French Rococo period, it depicts a passionate kiss between two lovers. The composition is diagonal, made up by an axis composed through the woman's leaning figure, the shawl, and the balcony door opening from the outside, ending with the table over which the shawl is draped. The painting is in the collection of the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia.

Painters: Jean-Honoré Fragonard, Marguerite Gérard

You think she’s trying to grab the shawl so she can go out onto the balcony, too? 🙂

"C'mon baby, let's fuck!"

"But Tommmmmmm, everybody is watching us from right outside the doorrrrrrrr"

"Yeah, I know. It's all part of the historically accurate time period of how a new king fucks his queen as a newly married couple, while everyone watches!"

I mean, what else were they going to do with their time? They didn't have Netflix back then....

Does it? Her face doesn't exactly give "consenting vibes".
