The pose is a bit erotic

and would wings that small actually carry it's bodyweight? I thought traditionally angels were clad in robes. Or in the case of Mikael, armour.

The wings look no different

The wings look no different than thousands of other depictions of angels and consider the usual source of angel designs and the logic of art over the years: nudity = bad!

Thinking about it, why would they be wearing clothes at all if they are supposed to be from the place that is eternally perfect and clothing is an idea of man and angels aren't from the world of man?

I'm told STFU more times in a day than most people get told in a lifetime

Aren't they?
