Walter Richard Sickert Ennui 1913
Here is my picture. I know that you will find out easily but my goal is to share something what I like with people, plus it's called art therapy.

Pissaro: The Hermaitage at Pontoise. I have liked this painting for years but it would be easy to find because the artist's name is clearly visible on the picture.

That's strange because it has transferred OK on my computer. Maybe we ought to wait to see if others don't have it also.Quote:

Ooh, we have a poster of that one in the department - it's Paysage à Cassis by Andre Derain.
Hmm... Probably an easy one...

This isn't as easy as it appears. I have looked at a large number of pictures of fat women; not, as you may imagine, an agreeable experience but it seems that was how they liked them in those days. Although I was fairly sure that it was by Rubens I was unable to trace it. I take it that it is 17th century Dutch or German.
No Brian it can't be Rubens, it was created before Rubens was born.Quote:

The artist name is Jan Mabuse, his real name is Gossaert who lived from 1478 – to October 1532 and the painting title is 'Venus And a Mirror.
Rubens was born 45 years after Mabuse died.
She is not fat - she is curvy. :smile5:
I know that the following painting will be so easy to find out, but I just love it!
http://www.online-literature.com/for...1&d=1280778127
It's one of the many Water Lilies paintings by Claude Monet; but I have no idea which one specifically. It's really beautiful. I like it, too.
Dang... I knew it was Gosseart but I kept searching under "Vanity".:willy_nilly:
Claude Monet
Water Lilies or Water Lilies, Evening, or Water Lilies, Evening Effect or Water Lilies, Evening Flower (I found all of these titles before finding the collection in which it can be found)
Musee Marmottan, Paris, France

I was not familiar with with Gosseart I just typed 'Venus with a mirror' into google and it came up. She is Venus obviously :-)Quote:

I have checked out Warhol and Lichtenstein, as well as Contemporary American Artists, to no avail. Even early Jackson Pollock doesn't get it. I don't believe Edward Hopper could have done it. The painting has overtones of Matisse but that's probably incidental.Quote:

I am not familiar with American fine arts thank you stlukesguild I am learning a lot!

Ilya Repin, They didn't expect. It took for a while to find the English title because the original is 'Ne zhdali' and every Russian schoolboy and girl is familiar with this painting.
Repin is one of my favorites, thank you!
Now I would like to ask you, Brian, to post something instead of me.
Of course, I knew you would get Repin's picture, it is so famous. So here is something equally as famous but very different.

Blue nude, by Matisse :)
New challenge:

Sorry Kyriakos but I changed the picture because Matisse's signatutre was too prominent .Quote:

It is Large Reclining Nude by Matisse anyway.
Paul Klee 1930 'The Kettledrum Organ', Allen Memorial Art Museum, Oberlin Ohio
Klee is one of my three or 4 favorite Modernists... probably the first Modern artist whose work I came to love... and this particular painting was virtually in my back yard (I grew up just minutes away from Oberlin).

Our mystery artist studied at the Boston Museum School where he later taught. He was much in demand as a portraitist, and later became a leading figure in the development of American Impressionism.

Not really - I am not familiar with American artists. I already know the name of this artist but haven't found the titles of his paintig yet.Quote:

The lates two pictures you posted:
1. Summer in New England
2. Portrait of My Daughters
I will find out the title of the second picture you posted when I am back home.
The first painting was his portrait of Mary Sullivan.
Whose turn does that make it - mine or Olga's? I'm quite happy to defer...
{edit} - and there I've missed it! Your turn, Olga!
