This was tough. It is almost like you went out of your way to find less inspiring works by several of the artists. I know I could have found more than a dozen paintings by Van Gogh, Cezanne, Picasso, Rothko, and Monet that I enjoy more than the selected paintings.
It came down to these four:
Kadinsky -- I always enjoy his paintings, and this is not a bad selection.
Van Gogh -- a top five artist for me, but a bad selection. I suspect I would enjoy this painting more in person. I can't really make out the brushstrokes in the image.
Picasso-- I like the blue period. I would probably enjoy this more in person.
Rothko -- I've learned the meditative value of Rothko over the past five years. This one is meh and the room has to have the right lighting for them to bring out their best.
I'm going with the Rothko, edging out the Picasso.
