Clearly they're making deep and insight comments on the nature of the work, and the way light is used to help display this.

Clearly... yes... absolutely... no doubt!

Such an insightful and intellectual discussion much be taking place.

I actually learned a fair bit about British popular culture in the 1960s while researching this picture and the artist. The most popular prints by J. H. Lynch were "Woodland Goddess" (as seen here), "Nymph" (which is even more risque), and the comparatively conservative "Tina."

I also learned that there was a well-known and popular print from the same era called "The Crying Boy" that was said to be cursed, causing house fires.

Honestly, you know more about them than I do. I vaguely recognise them but beyond that my knowledge is sparse.
