"QUESTION: Discovered later than it should this painting makes the land lapped by the North Sea proud dispite the argument."


Ahh well, Back to random guessing

Jacques-Louis David -Napoleon crossing the St.Bernards pass

It is not Jacques-Louis David's "Bonaparte Crossing the St. Bernard Pass".

QUESTION: Discovered later than it should this painting makes the land lapped by the North Sea proud dispite the argument.

Johan Jensen "Pink Roses in a Vase"

This is just a guess as he seem to be the only painter in the list from anywhere near Lapland.

It is not Johan Jensen's "Pink Roses in a Vase".

This one is pretty tough..


Perhaps a hint is in order?

I'll take a random guess: boreas john waterhouse

It is not John Waterhouse's "Boreas". But isn't that a powerful image. One of my favorites for sure.

QUESTION: Discovered later than it should this painting makes the land lapped by the North Sea proud dispite the argument.

How about Rembrandt's St Matthew and the Angel?

I know a number of Rembrandts have been discovered/rediscovered/reattributed in the last few decades – is that one?

It is not Rembrandt's St Matthew and the Angel.



Good guesses yall!

Hint added to the opening post.

Everyone who has already posted an answer can offer a second guess. You can even work together in this thread.

ANSWER: "Reverend Robert Walker Skating on Duddingston Loch" by Henry Raeburn. Discovered in 1949 well after it was painted it makes Scottland proud because it is believed that it was painted by a Scottish man though there is a contraversy. Some believe it was painted by a French man by the name of Henri-Pierre Danloux.





I'll have another question posted soon.
