adjan jb Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 (edited) 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. Edited April 3, 2008 by adjan jb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeungKen Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

Tony Clifton Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 (edited) 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.

LaoPo Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 (edited) I know tis one is very well known, it is one of my favourite paintings ever. 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 LaoPo Edited April 3, 2008 by LaoPo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
