Haha! When I saw it in your post I thought "Hey, she looks familiar" Took me a minute to remember it was a Goya. I hope they weren't asking too much, considering...
Goys'a painting is actually something of a copy - a theme so to speak - in a sense. I think Giorgione did it first. Then Titian with the Venus of Urbino. Then Manet did his version Olympia. There's probably a bunch more. Seems that nudes have been quite popular even though they mostly hid them in a closet!
I like the classical style of paintings but I am by no means educated in it. What I do know is that people have and always will admire and want to capture beauty and female form. Nudes will never go out of style!

That painting is really pretty cool how so many artists did a version of it
Manet's scandalous "prostitute" Olympia
