Cool paintings that depict hedonism?

Hey đŸ™‚

i'm trying to find a painting that'd look cool on the wall above the head of my bed.

I like art, but don't know much about it.

Goya, Caravaggio, Blake, ... love that kinda stuff.

But i'd like to find an image that somehow depicts hedonism (preference hedonism / desire satisfaction theory) in a not so creepy way. Don't wanna scare away my potential companions đŸ˜…

Do you have an idea?

Thx!

It's not exactly hedonism, but is kind of adjacent.

I know it's probably meant to be semi-serious but I can't stop giggling at their faces

That's intentional. Jean-Honoré Fragonard had a goofy style.
