Of Course

The Miss World contest will be in Warsaw this year. That city uses as a symbol a bare-breasted mermaid holding a sword and shield.

Rafal Olbinski is the Polish artist responsible for this promotional poster. His original design -- which did not include the white "Miss World" banner -- was modified at the request of local officials, who explained that there is "no doubt that Olbinski's original version was strongly erotic and we did not want to attach such aspect to the Miss World contest."

All right, then.
