• Fine Art Friday

  

  Discussing the Divine Comedy with Dante                                                        by Dudu, Li Tiezi, and  Zhang An
  Oil on Canvas                                                                                                             2006

  Apparently this painting is making the rounds on the internet and I thought it would be fun to try and figure out who's who.  There are 103 famous faces.  Drop back by and let me know how many you recognize.  I dont expect to do very well because I'm famous for not recognizing famous people.

  Have I told you the story of how I asked the Director of the CIA if he worked for the government?  Or how I was in the same room with Robert McNamara and didnt know why there was so much hubub?

  So, today's fine art is a history lesson.

  Put away your Sudoko.

  Forgo the Times Crossword puzzle.

  Test yourself.

  Here's a link to a Telegraph article where the answers are linked in a sidebar.

  FYI if you click over to the Telegraph article, you can also click onto a larger image of the painting.
