What's This Artwork ?

[adjan jb]

Here is a new game called 'What's this artwork ?" (It's based on Neeraman's "What's the City")

All you do is post a photo of a more or less famous artwork (painting, sculpture,...) not a portrait of your mother in law tending the sick buffalo

Clues can be given or not. If no-one guess, you can post a photo of another artwork by the same artist.

Here is the first one.

Sorry this pic is a tad small but that the biggest I found on Goggle.

Reason for edit: add a rule and apologize for the small pic.

Do we have to guess the artist and the title ?

What about the date and where the painting (artwork) is at currently ?

I could really get into this thread if the picture was a bit bigger.

Just for fun I will say :- Rupert Bunny (Australian 1864 - 1947) and the picture hangs in the National Gallery of Victoria

The artist will do. Otherwise I guess it's too difficult (any imput appreciated)

A French painter born in 1780. This oil on canvas was painted in 1808 and it hangs in the Louvre.

Next one, since the previous one was correct....

The painter was a woman. Should be easy.

Pure luck, I stumbled upon this and immediately saw the similarities in style and background.

Tamara de Lempicka

[Tony Clifton]

I am fascinated by this one. The Louvre's website had it featured a while ago and it could be looked at using a virtual magnifying glass. Amazing detail.

I know tis one is very well known, it is one of my favourite paintings ever.

[LaoPo]

That's "The Milkmaid" painted by Johannes Vermeer between 1658-1660. Rijksmuseum - Amsterdam

Tony: Correct and well done ! (Tamara de Limpicka's painting)

Tony2: I feel frustrated since I can't recall the name of the painting and painter.....

But, I will soon come with an answer

Jan van Eyck, a Dutch painter, painted 'your' painting around 1435 and is called: "Madonna of Chancellor Rolin"

Jan van Eyck is even more famous for this painting:

The Arnolfini Portrait

Here is a new painting; an interesting one as it was rejected to put on show at the exhibition.......

WHO painted it and what's the name of this revolutionary painting (in those days) ?

It's quite a famous painter actually.
