Pick a famous artist's painting for your living room.
Okay, here are the rules and the background.

I googled a list of the "greatest painters of all time" and found some random person's list who seemed to have an opinion. I then googled the names of the top 30 artists, adding "paintings museum" to the search to try to avoid copies and stuff.

I took the second image that I found in each search. My goal was to avoid the artist's most famous painting, and to get a different, and generally less famous, example of their work.

I'll put images of each of the 30 artist's paintings up in the first few posts of this thread.

Here's the rule: you get to pick one of these paintings to be displayed in your living room for the rest of your life. It is the painting shown in the first set of posts in this thread. You cannot pick another painting by that artist.

You cannot sell the painting or charge admission to view the painting. You do not own the painting. It is being provided to you for your personal enjoyment only.

Which painting do you select?

(Gimme a minute to get the posts up and the poll up. Go paint a picture of a happy tree or something while you're waiting.)

It was so vivid. The colors were so unbelievably pristine.

A closer look revealed brush bristles stuck in the oil, and fingerprints scattered about. It’s a masterpiece.

One of probably five pieces of artwork that have ever made my eyes well up with tears just from looking at them.
I haven't been there, but that would be great to see.

A painting that I saw at the Louvre has always stuck with me as a beautiful painting. Delaroche's "The Young Martyr". It's amazing in real life.

Caravaggio simply beats/murders all the competition. He was one part genius painter and one part drunken brawling street thug.

Yes but we actually have pages of written records of Caravaggio's brawling and at least one murder he committed. He also did so in multiple cities.

Since art is subjective..no offense.

No:

Albert Bierstadt
Norman Rockwell
Maxfield Parrish
Thomas Hart Benton
Remington
*Frank Frazetta
*Roger Dean

but off the list...

The Monet is tempting as I saw my first at the Nelson last year.

The Pollack would be incredible because you could study and get lost in it for hours.

But in the end, I'll have to choose the Michelangelo. The only artist to ever create masterpieces in art, sculpture and architecture. He's unparalleled in my eyes. No one comes close.

Monet for me and it's not even close. Art rarely does much for me, but his stuff has depth at a level I really don't understand myself.

I'm curious to know what there is to study in a Jackson Pollock painting.

I took art history as one of my college courses and when we got to Pollock there wasnt much to be said other than sometimes he drops a cigarette butt in his painting as he stands over the canvas and haphazardly flicks paint around.

Looks like a ferret with trimmed ears that works his arms and shoulders to hell at the gym. Possibly some HGH involved.
