Great thread GG by the way. :cuppaT:

Munch's iconic 'The Scream' - there are several versions but I like the 1893 one the best.

The Lion Hunt of Ashnurbanipal, 7th Cent BC. These are from a long frieze of Assyrian palace reliefs and are downstairs in the British Museum. Very much worth a look, just as much as the Elgin Marbles, and like those would probably have been painted in bright colours originally. They reminded me a bit of giant malted milk biscuits.

Pinch them, if you want. Can't get much more archaeological than Nineveh, after all!

Here's a couple of Soutines – very lush paintings. He used to stink his building out with some of the rotting carcases he painted, which got the neighbours complaining.
