    I'm happy we did start this game, I'm learning a lot about art from Australia, as I have to admit that I'm very ignorant about it. Australian impressionism has a unique vibe.

    Don't worry about the rep As someone likes to say, "God knows if Flinn has too much of it!"

    Next one



    This is a particular of the whole artwork, but it's so famous that I doubt it will be anything but easy to identify it.

    This is probably the most famous painting of the dead Christ, and certainly one of the greatest Renaissance paints ever made

    Italy, 15th century. The author was from Venice, but this particular artwork is now preserved in Milan.

    ok so, it seems that no one really wants to guess this

    Andrea Mantegna: "Il Cristo Morto" (The Lamentation over the Dead Christ)

    This is really a very famous artwork from Renaissance, and one of the greatest one when it comes to perspective applied to the human body

    Anyone can take the turn if they want, or I'll post something new in the next days

    I took a pretty safe guess that this fountain was Italian :p

    Following a Google Image search for "italian statue water fountain famous" that gave me an absolute ton of Trevi Fountain results, I finally think I found it in the Fountain of the Four Rivers or La Fontana Die Quattro Fiumi

    It is indeed the Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi, well done.

    The maker is the fabulous Baroque genius, Gian Lorenzo Bernini.

    This is not exactly a single piece of artwork, but to us Italians this is art as well.
