Georges Seurat, A Sunday on La Grande Jatte, 1884, Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago, IL, USA. Detail.
How well do you know these iconic paintings? You’re probably familiar with all of them but do you remember the important details in them? What are these sitters holding? What is in the background? What kind of pets are missing from their owners? Be careful! Some of the questions might be tricky.
Oh, and one more thing, you can find all of the artworks from this quiz in the Great Masterpieces Postcards Set available in our shop.
1/13
Let’s start with something (rather) easy, The Sistine Madonna by Raphael. Do you know what is painted beneath Madonna’s feet?
