So we're just waiting for the 'cultured' Americans to recognise their most famous artist. (well artist with the more famous mother)

And I know I've seen the swimming pool one. I'll guess the title.

That's how I found Titian. In case you're wrong:
D1 - Chagall? |
|

He must be somewhere...
A1 = Chagall? |

| Give the title points to Mendoza - I think he is right, but I did not recognise the painting. |

Oh yeah, A2 is from the notorious "Le déjeuner sur l'herbe" isn't it? (I suppose DP just forgot to give the title, so he should get the points if anyone's counting).
Well, I'm stuck. I've seen D1 before, but no name comes to mind. B3 is familiar as well, but Edward Hopper has already been tried.

| By the way - I think it would not be fair to throw the search for titles open for googling etc later. Between Bambi and myself and our art books, we can probabky clean this up in 30 minutes. |
