Maxfield Parrish and Omar Khayyam connected by the pipe. I love both, though there is something about that bottom one that makes it distractingly beautiful.

BTW I used Omar Khayyam a fair bit when I taught algebra
This evening's additions.
John Pettie – Cromwell’s Saints – 1863

Samuel John Peploe – Self portrait - 1919

Really like The Night Stall, definitely one of my favorites in this whole thread. Are they selling oranges and onions at night? What's with the umbrella? It's not raining and he doesn't need shade...
On the other hand, Emily Grace Henry's 1953 portrait of Prof. Henry is hideous. Why the hell is that painting in some gallery? It's horrid!

See, I thought it was vampire garlic?

On the other hand, Emily Grace Henry's 1953 portrait of Prof. Henry is hideous

Prof. Henry is Emily's father and was probably chosen by her father to be his portraitist when required by the college rather than by the university's "official" portraitist. Love is Blindness

Edward Arthur Walton – Joseph Crawhall -1884

Alexander Moffat – poet Christopher Murray Grieve (Hymn to Lenin) – 1979

Absolutely love the Walton - filled with light and I admire the way some painters can use the broad brush strokes and still convey emotion. Seurat was good at that before he got into pointillism. Based on the amount of work it was to find my two little Prohibition photos, I can't believe you spotted the pipe in that one.
Dare I go off-topic and post one of my all time favorites that has no pipe in it? I'm going to risk it for the sake of the art. It's called Cows in a Field, and you know who made it. A perfect example of the broad brush strokes that is filled with light and emotion. Can you guess why it's called Cows in a Field? Feel the heat on the nearer's flank. Bein' a cow. Bugger off.

Look at these beauties

johncieera - you found the quintessential Harnett - I believe some of those same pipes ended up in some of Peto's we have also.

Is that last one a tatoo?
