You know you've been doing art-history too long when you can look at a painting and immediately go "that's by X", read the caption and discover it IS by X. (X in my case being Titian...)

I like the Titian, but I doubt I could know it was him at a glance. I can do Monet pretty well, and Van Gogh (possibly because they adorn nearly every freshman wall in the US? Buffy was not exaggerating there). I get Titian and Rubens mixed up sometimes.

I put it down to having analysed a couple of Titians to within an inch of their lives - that, plus his women all look the same!

And I know Buffy wasn't exaggerating - same thing applies here, too *grins and admits is guilty of having many Monets on her wall*

Water Lilies! W00t! The midwest is a bit odd, though-- very few Klimts.

Not sure there were too many Klimts in Salford, either...
