OriginalThe Ballet of the Nuns from Robert le diable, original production.
Reason
A high-quality lithograph of probably the most popular scene of Robert le diable: The one in which the spirits of perverted nuns all seduce the "hero". ...Yeah, this opera's morality is really off. Don't worry, the "hero" decides not to sell his soul to his father, who is a devil, because he hears a song that reminds him of his mother, but only after his love interest arrives to tell him he's going to get everything he wants either way! (He was still going to sign the contract, just to make sure, though, before he heard the music)
