Must admit the art question was a guess. I knew Klimt and Roden did the Kiss so presumed the other guy did. joy

Well done everyone. Great quiz @Mi-Amigo 

Wasn't positive on the other art question either. I'm supposed to love art.rofl

Thank you @MI5 @pgn @Cleoriff 

Seems all of you found Art question 6 tricky, but what I found intresting was which other question each of you found difficult.

 

Sorry to hear @jonsie is not well and I wish him a speedy recovery and back with us on the Community.

Must be said, I much prefer Klimt to Cézanne, but, that said, his "Still life with Cherub" is pretty 'armless 🤣
