Diane Arbus by Roz Kelly, 1968

Pablo Picasso and Jean Marais by Brassaï

"This is Pablo Picasso satirically posing as a painter of a painting that he didn’t really paint, something bought from an antique dealer for the sake of mocking “academic” painting with Jean Cocteau’s muse Jean Marais posing as “a model.”

Cindy Sherman by Richard Prince, Richard Prince as Cindy Sherman

Henri Matisse by Brassaï, 1939

Pierre-Auguste Renoir by Frédéric Bazille

"Painted in 1867. Bazille, who was wealthier than his Impressionist pals Renoir, Claude Monet, Alfred Sisley, and Édouard Manet, allowed them to share his studio space."

Salvador Dalí by Man Ray, 1930

Michelangelo by Jacopino del Conte

"This was painted after 1535, when the Italian Renaissance master was 60 years old."
