The question arises, however, of where to draw the rather thick gray line. If you're not sure what I'm talking about, take for instance the famous Renaissance paintings; often innocent at first glance, but perhaps one of the subjects is nude. Perhaps in the background there is a nude individual. Maybe that individual is too tiny to see clearly. Or perhaps it's adorned with nude cherubim around the corners. Or maybe there's a photo of something where in the background you can see a nude sculpture. And that's just the topic of nudity within the scope of the Renaissance art-- it gets worse.
This is precisely the thing that makes it difficult to decide whether to block an image or not. Whatever system is used, it needs to be a bit more intricate than just "either / or".
