The statue of Laocoon and His Sons reminds me of Shokushu Goukan, or Tentacle Rape, a distinctively Japanese form of pornographic art in which the subject is being entered, usually without consent, by a monster with many penis-like tentacles.
The tentacles can also act as ropes for bondage.
There is mouth and anal entry, and either penis manipulation or some sort of tentacle-fellatio.
The origin was probably a non-pornographic yokai who grabbed unsuspecting fishermen and pulled them to their deaths. A little tweaking, and the cautionary tale becomes porn.
Contemporary artists usually show hapless space explorers running afoul of multi-tentacled alien monsters with sexual congress on their minds, but there are also furry and fantasy-world tentacles.
The monsters can be plants, animals, or miscellaneous, sentient or not.
Sometimes the encounter is not accidental but by design, the hero captured by a mad scientist or Medieval torturer.
We usually don't see the being, just the straining, struggling muscles and the multiple entries by the tentacle/penises, so the acts becomes stylized, pure entry, sex without an object.

Fun fact: Lovecraft actually wrote a letter to Klarkash-Ton about how Yog-Sothoth would impregnate young Miss Whateley. So, tentacle open has a Western history too.
