Tiny problems.

Getting Master on the first try was easy enough; however, there were a few tiny problems. Clicking on the EXACT pixel on Brugel's Landscape with the Fall of Icarus is annoying as hell. Also, Paolo Veronese was a Mannerist painter directly after the Renaissance. Finally, the two bonus Leonardo drawings were the both the some of the less impressive drawings of his, and the gallery didn't need more Leonardo. Your chronology was also a little fussy, and your exemption of Renaissance sculpture was really disheartening.

However, this was a fun little quiz to refresh me on my (admittedly rusty) knowledge of the mid-to-late Renaissance, and it's nice to see something resembling culture on this site.

mrty responds:

- I'll work on that pixel problem, since you are the second person to complain about it.
- Thanks for the heads-up about Veronese. But I don't think that a few out-of-period paintings should be a problem.
- I agree that the one with the neck is far from interesting, but I thought that the flying machine drawing would be. It was, after all, one of the first attempts at flying.
- I didn't work on any chronological order. The riddles are ordered randomly.
- I did think of sculpture at first, but after browsing through some sculpture examples, I decided that you couldn't really make up any riddles with them. Although, if you have some recommendations, I'd appreciate you sharing them with me.
- And finally, thanks for the review.
