Summary[edit]

Description
English: In 2022 I took a similar view when the lighting was different.

See also my photo John Gibson - Love Cherishing the Soul while Preparing to Torment it, detail of bottom.

I'm sorry to say that the "Hourglass" photo of Hymen's bottom has now gone, along with its creator photomequickbooth. I'm sure I downloaded a copy of said photo, but I'm not sure if the original owner posted it under a CC licence.

I suppose the next best thing would be to take a similar detail shot myself, which in retrospect I should have done when I took this one. But I'm writing this update in late 2021 when the alarums about Omicron are making the prospect of visiting the V&A iffy for the time being.

UPDATE: I've now managed to get back to London, with a little help from the Elizabeth Line, and I have indeed taken a similar detail shot.
