Excellent.

I've always found, "Campbell Soup," - Andy Warhol, to be an interesting art piece.

Van Eyck - Madonna & Child



Van Eyck - Madonna & Child Close Up Of Rug



LdV - Head Of A Woman



Canaletto - The Stonemason's Yard



Cracked

Velasquez - Las Meninas (1656) - It's like a historic photograph showing the artist himself.



Grant Wood - American Gothic (1930) - I just have always liked this classic



Jan van Eyck - The Arnolfini Wedding (1434) - The view in the mirror shows two figures just inside the door that the couple are facing. The second figure, wearing red, is presumably the artist although, unlike Velázquez in Las Meninas, he does not seem to be painting.

These are some great choices! You know it's art when you have to stop and pause because your eyes wont let you do anything different.
