may actually contain queers post antiquity

side blog of @mikey-beans where I reblog homoerotic or expressly queer classic art. I'm not an art historian, and I understand that a piece of art may not be depicting actual homosexuality as we know it today. I'm just a gay reblogging/posting old art that looks gay to me.
