got 2 out of 10 right!
7 of 10 which is bad considering my career path, etc… I’m kicking myself for missing the Manet. I actually did lighting for the Girl With a Pearl Earring when it was in San Francisco.
Good quiz and challenging. Cheers!
Oh, I also missed Washington Crossing the Delaware – I have no excuse but also had no idea. Oh well …
Hard lines! The “Waashington” painting is interesting – painted by a German who had never seen the Delaware, which is why it looks more like the Rhine!
Only 6 out of 10. Nice quiz, John.
Again bad day for quiz. 1 out 10.
