The Great Painters' Photography 2

Inspired by this original image from @robdoran (Thank you for letting us borrow it!) and my regular thoughts about how the vision of the Great Painters of the past compare to how we see the world today, I created this two-off photo challenge for my followers. This challenge will both inspire your creativity but also expand your knowledge of the history of art.
Please note that if you post your submission in the first 24 hours after I post this challenge I will not believe that you made a true effort. As with all of my challenges, the point of them is to challenge you, to build your creative strength, and to teach you.

(NB: I forgot to post this online here: the IG challenge is finished now, but its not a bad exercise for blog readers who still want to do it on their own.)

Update...

Almost finished with this major jobs application I've been working on. I just have a few other personal items to catch up with, then I can tackle lesson #2. Its half-way done already, I just need some free time to finish it up, then I'll get it posted (see note on IG too).

Sorry for the delay here, but finding a job has to take priority over IG sometimes. Thank you for all your patience and understanding everyone!

PS: I also have started blog posts on the following topics that should be posted soon too!
– Abstract Photography
– Social Psychology, Viewing Trends, and Copyrights
– Filters & Cultural Memory
