Why in this case, though? The whole point was that she posed nude wearing the Heart of the Ocean for Jack, and the treasure hunters looking for the diamond found the picture. That is the McGuffin that holds the whole story together. You get that contrast, the many contrasts in that movie. Great opulence above decks, poverty below. A naked young girl full of the promise of life, an ancient old woman at the end of it. Also it's a very pretty picture.
I wish we could get an image of Jack's drawing to use as an illustration. THAT shows her completely nude, instead of just one breast. But then, it's a drawing, and not a photo, so apparently that's more palatable.
