I almost minored in art history so I'm pretty upset that I got two wrong! But I knew from just browsing which one wasn't included. Great hub! Makes me want to get more into art again. It's also nice that it's interactive and not just reading.
Hi, I definitely got the Da Vinci, and funnily enough I remembered seeing Rembrandts paintings on tv recently, and the art historian saying you can always recognise Rembrandts because they come across as darker than the others, so I do take in some info sometimes! lol! great fun! thanks! rated up and shared, nell
I love this fun hub.i did pretty well but the cezanne really stumped me since his still life's are so iconic. Cheers
Aurelio,
Thanks for posting your art quiz. It was fun!
I have a four-year degree in Fine Arts and am certified to teach all art subjects in Kindergarten through the 12th grade...For me, the quiz was fairly easy..100%!
Great Hub and idea! I love art and have studied all but two of your artists, but I still missed a few. But, I got the majority correct - wheeew! Thanks for a fun and interactive hub!
I only got 5 correct but should definitely have recognized a few of the others. Fun quiz! Up, interesting, useful and will share so that more people can test their art history memory.
I was an art history major-- so I got'em. Whew, glad I don't have to give my diploma back.
I only got 3 right..... What a great idea. Fun and interesting. Voted up.
Congrats Rochelle.
alocsin, i don't know how you do it, but all your hubs rock. I may not always leave comments but i always vote them up and across. Happy you are in hubpages.

This was fun. A hub as a game. I got four right. I knew the Mary Casset painting and could guess Picasso, Monet and Da Vinci all by style. This was a good idea for a hub. If you decide to lengthen your hub, you might put a little bit about each painting or artist, but I think it is fine as is.
