Your Favorite Work of Art

[Tiesabre]

I've always loved the The Scream because I like to think the two guys in the background killed someone and the Screaming Person saw it.



Not to mentioned the colors and style are simply amazing.

[No Names Left Damn It]

This pic.

No, it's not the ceiling of the sistine chapel. No, it's not the Mona Lisa. No, it's not even in color. But I happen to be quite fond of it, and that's what matters -- no offense, people, but I'd rather have this one framed and hung on my wall than the pics other people posted. *shrugs*

love how that dragon has tits, even though it's clearly reptilian.

[Galloism]

Because of its structure, design, and capabilities this qualifies as a piece of art.

From the front bumper all the way to the back bumper, from the tires where they touch the pavement up to the ceiling, it was hand-crafted to be the new supercar and it came out a beautiful and functional piece of art.

Except for the fact it's fuck ugly.

Meh, looks aren't everything. I think it looks pretty good myself, but I may be biased by the fact that it can do 273mph.

I'm old old old old old school.

[Extreme Ironing]

This is a photograph, but rather awesome in scale.

I retract my statement, it is a work of art.

I retract my statement, it is a work of art.

But can it do speed bumps?

[Daistallia 2104]

Jackson Pollock's Full Fathom Five, Blue Poles, or Number 1, and Van Gogh's De Sterrennacht.

4" of ground clearance, IIRC.

I'd say yes, a a beautiful one at that.

And that says a lot coming from someone who dislikes automobiles...

[Nanatsu no Tsuki]

Alessandro Boticelli's:

Madonna della Melagrana

[Pope Joan]

Guernica by Picasso.

I like the drama and the political theme.



I do also like Michelangelo, and The Scream, which others have already posted.

[Daistallia 2104]

Guernica by Picasso.

Ya know, as someone who loves and defends a lot of modern art, I unfortunately (?) really dislike Picasso's work.

Not quite sure what it is, but I just don't like it.

[Crookfur]

Ever since i first saw this i have always found this photo beautiful, despite what it represents:

Good call.

I find it quite dramatic. Imagine a bomb falling and the panic and destruction ensuing.

[GetBert]

The Arnolfini Wedding by Jan van Eyck
Sun in an Empty Room by Edward Hopper
Koi by Ando Hiroshige
A Young Hare by Durer
oh so many more, but if forced at gun point to pick one it would be Hunters in the Snow by Breughel

[Daistallia 2104]

It's not Guernica in particular, but Picasso in general I dislike. And I "get" and appreciate Cubism intellectually.

I just don't find it visually appealing.

[Obvious Pseudonym]

I'm a fan of William Bouguereau.

I'm going to need some alone time while I imagine how this would look turning into a robot.

I must admit I have the same response as you but to the Pollock you posted.

Actually, I quite like the looks, but doesn't it supposedly steer like a preggers cow?
