Hilde Guden
Album: Hilde Guden Sings
(Compilation of operatic arias via Spotify)

The Austrian soprano Hilde Gueden, or Güden (September 15, 1917 – September 17, 1988) was one of the most appreciated Straussian and Mozartian sopranos of her day. Her youthful and lively interpretations made her an ideal interpreter of roles like Zerbinetta in Ariadne auf Naxos and Susanna in Le nozze di Figaro.

The painting: School of Fontainebleu, Gabrielle d’Éstrées and her Sister in a Bath, c. 1595, oil on panel. Musée du Louvre, Paris..."the woman receiving the nipple pinch is most likely Gabrielle d’Éstrées, favorite mistress of King Henry IV, and the act of nipple-pinching probably alludes to her pregnancy; the nipple-pincher is one of her sisters" -- so says the internet.

interesting cover art

IMO, it might face censorship in the United States but not in Europe or Canada.
