Five Great Paintings

My favorite paintings by some of the greatest artists of all time.

The Water Lilies (1920-26)

By Claude Monet

Remember when Kobe dropped 60 in his final game?

This is the art equivalent of that.

Still Life With Apples (1895-98)

By Paul Cezanne

My favorite still life of all time.

One of Cezanne's many classics. His landscapes and portraits are just as legendary.

Small Worlds I
(1922)

By Wassily Kandinsky

One of the many Kandinsky paintings I love.

His analysis, “Concerning the Spiritual in Art,” is an essential read.

Fighting Forms (1914)

By Franz Marc

A beautiful and complex work from the Expressionism movement. Not only is it eye-catching at a first glance, the more you observe it, the more you begin to appreciate the technique and execution.
