I wonder about that, those artists can be a rather randy bunch. Botticelli destroyed a number of his nudes after a religious conversion. The Catholic church periodically covers or uncovers the genitalia of it's sculture (with occasional chisel blows). If you go back to the real classics, i.e. the Greeks, their admiration of the human form almost certainly included lustful intent.
