It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

That's a perfectly reasonable opinion but realism as a movement is defined by which part of reality the artist chooses to depict and that's where the artistic expression comes in.

realism is in art history the begining of the modern art movement and rejected traditional ideas about what could be depicted in art.

This person chose to depict a woman in a flowy dress, which I also don't find especially interesting

There is basically nothing interesting in terms of content about this, it's just horny with bordering-on-cartoonish anatomy and good cloth and hair. It doesn't express anything except objectification laundered through technical ability and detail.
