RE: ADSactly Culture - The Ten Most Famous Paintings of All Time (Part I)
I got a few of these but obviously it’s all a matter of taste : how you were brought up, what country you live in and – if your an artist what your own influences were.
here is my list and not in any order. I picked some because they are obvious and some because they are my personal favorites.
- Mona Lisa (obvious)
- Rembrant’s Selfie
- Starry Night (obvious)
- Christina’s World
- Klimpt’s “the Kiss”
- “George Washington Crossing the Delaware”
- Jackson Pollock’s “Number 5”
- Egon Sheile 1912 Selfie
- Vermer’s “Girl with the Pearl Ear Ring”
- and of course “the Scream”
oddly I didn’t pick any Piccassos! – just never got into cubism.
You made a very good selection, @Kouba01. In fact some, even if they are not on the list, should be. As for example La chica del arete de perla also considered as the Dutch Mona Lisa. I also have my favorites that aren't among the most famous, but I thought they might be. This is the case, for example, of El Bosco's Garden of Delights. That is an impressive painting with a very rich meaning. I always appreciate your comment. Greetings
