Let's move away from France a bit, shall we ?

Let's see if someone knows about this painting and it's painter

LaoPo

Is it a painting by Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema ?

That was correct as you found out in the meantime. Well done and my compliments.

Ooooops.... :o

I missed Caravaggio....

I suppose, it's your turn 'twschw'

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

It's quite a famous painter actually.

LaoPo

Manet "Le dejeuner sur l'herbe".

Pussy for lunch, times never change.........LOL

Mary Cassat - Offering the Panal to the Toreador, 1873

Correct; not one of her better works though.... :o

Her other oeuvre has a much softer touch.

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 :D

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.

Queen Mary :o

Nope.

Famous Neo-expressionist. 1980's

Died of overdose.

Andy Warhol was his mentor. A movie was made about his life and David Bowie played the role of Andy Warhol.

Fernando Botero and the painting is "Dancers, 2002".

What's the painting called and painted by whom ?

post-13995-1207318818_thumb.jpg

It is believed that this Lady was the model for one of the most shocking paintings in the 19th century....

If this is guessed I can post a link to that painting as Thaivisa will probably not allow the image to be posted here :D , although it is one of the most beautiful nudes I have ever seen... :o

La Belle Irlandaise (portrait de Joanna Hifferman) by Courbet. Actually I wanted to post a pic of L'Origine du Monde instead of Botero. It is my favourite painting. A masterpiece.
