Thank goodness! I ran out of midnight oil last week with that one.

Now all we need is for Sixsmith to post another.

Here we go.

Brief Bernini aside -
Gian Lorenzo Bernini a dominant figure in Roman Baroque art more popularly associated with his magnificent sculptures and architectural accomplishments.
Bernini gave us treasures such as the “baldechino” centered under the dome of St. Peters in Roma, “Aeneas, Anchises and Ascanius”, “Ecstasy of Saint Theresa” and a particular favorite of mine; “Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi” at Piazza Navona.
Examples of architectural contributions include the Piazza of St. Peters with the embracing arms of the colossal colonnade and Sant'Andrea al Quirinale in Roma.

Another work from our mystery artist:

George Bellows:
Pennsylvania Station Excavation
Both Members of This Club

Nice job.
That one had me stumped

Thanks - I had no idea at first, but I recognised the second painting :p

The Raft of the Medusa by Gericault

Incidentally, Jazz, given the historical incident depicted, I think your tagline is particularly appropriate to the picture.



Next...

I was certain that this was Kees van Dongen... but I just couldn't seem to find this or the original painting on the "image" searches I ran. I long loved van Dongen's work... along with Bonnard's, Modigliani's and Matisse's.:smile5:

Yes St Lukes, I realise that my entries were not the obvious paintings of this artist, but I agree that his paintings are, from my limited perspective, excellent examples of their kind.
