    Here is another picture painted by this master. He, by the way, is a contemporary artist who represents a continent which hasn't been exposed in this thread so far.

    So let's start with something that is probably relatively easy, since it is a famous painting:

    It looks like a naked insane man eating a naked headless woman.

    Here is some more information about the artist. He was born in Yugoslavia but in 1970 his family immigrated to Australia. He had his first solo exhibition in 1977 at Eastgate Gallery, Brighton, Melbourn.

    I really like these paintings a lot.
    The tough thing is, I can't seem to find the titles of the paintings that you posted.
    They are all by Joseph Zbukvic and I believe the last one is entitled Seaside, although I may be mistaken. Good pick.

    Next up, and I expect this to last a matter of hours, is:

    I like your picture too! Honestly. The mystery picture's title is 'Wet day, Venice'
    Well done Matthew!
    Zbukvic is not a well known artist I felt uncomfortable after I posted it. I was afraid nobody will find out.

    Since you ended up having to giving us the painter's name, I may as well go ahead and respond. A testament to our poor performance.

    Artist: Umberto Levi
    Original challenge painting: Notte Veneziana

    I have to get ready for work now. The next mystery painting will be posted later (Friday evening CDT)
