I honestly believe Under the Yoke should’ve been here
Probably
For Russia I would have Ivan the terrible holding his dead son.
For Poland I would have the sad jester from the fall of PLC.
Based on which ranking/measure ?
Can someone explain Russia’s? Thanks.
Be cool if we had a legend to say which is which.
Where the nachtwacht at tho
Rembrandt and van Gogh would like to have a word with the manager of this map
Can someone explain Andorra?
A list of all countries and its arts so i can google the stories behind the paintings would be amazing as i dont know the arts.
Hey, where is the dogs playing poker. Also Mona is in the Louvre. I don’t know how Leo let that get away.
Finally, a nice post.
Would have expected starry night for The Netherlands
What’s the Ireland one?
TIL The Scream is Norwegian
I’ve would put “Ivan the Terrible and His Son Ivan on 16 November 1581” by Ilya Repin for Russia.
It suits a mood of age we live in as well.
For Croatia….
I see how you for representation of art put paintings, but from my personal opinion most iconic Croatian artist is/was Ivan Meštrović who was sculptor. One of his works should represent Croatia in my opinion.
As for Spain, I get it, I get it, but can we give Goya some love? “Saturn devouring his son” or “Yard with lunatics” are wonderful and macabre pieces of art.
Spain looks a little off /s
Not an artsy fartsy kind of guy but this is pretty cool.
Čiurlionis work was way ahead of his time. Who’s in Kaunas, Lithuania, I strongly suggest seeing the museum. His paintings are absolutely mesmerizing. I think there’s free entry on Sundays now and then.
Everytime it’s posted: no, it’s not even the most iconic Matejko’s painting
I have especially enjoyed admiring this map’s rendition of Andorra’s, San Marino’s, and Monaco’s iconic artworks! What amazing use of minimalism!
where’s banksy
I’m moving to Estonia
I would have put *La Liberté Guidant le Peuple* by Delacroix fro France.
What is the german one?
Somehow I never realized Edvard Munch was Norwegian.
You want a war with France ?
Finland, Sweden and Norway are on their way to prepare Midsommar.
I love this!
Why the hell is The Absinth Drinker” the most iconic artwork of the Czech Republic? Not only is it not that known, but we have the biggest consumption of beer per capita… Like pretty much any painting by Alphonse Mucha would do.
Nice map
That picture of Che Guerva which all the hippies have is Ireland’s most famous artwork.
Norway😱
How do you catogorize “iconicness”?
Not to disprove, just courious
1. Finland 2. Germany 3. Norway, in my biased opinion
As usual the best stuff in France is Italian. Wine, cheese, cars, people and art.
Romania – “Car cu boi” 1897 by Nicolae Grigorescu
The Czech one is so valuable that it hangs on the wall at the back of the Slávia café…
In Ukraine the most famous picture is showing Cossacs writing a fuck you letter to Turkish king after his ultimatum. Few centuries forward and Ukraine is still writing fuck you letters to idiots who want to conquer them lol

Belarus is fire
LOL @ Norway
Naughty Estonia
At it again I see.
Donegal is the UK now is it?
What a brilliant idea👏🏼
Can we get a list?
What’s the Swiss one supposed to be? Seriously, next to Burnand makes little sense. Just look at his painting of [the disciples John and Peter running to the tomb on the morning of the Resurrection](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/7e/Disciples_running_by_EB.jpg) or just his painting of [a bull mooing in the Alpes](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c6/Taureau_dans_les_Alpes_oil_painting_1884.jpg/1280px-Taureau_dans_les_Alpes_oil_painting_1884.jpg), what can be more Swiss than that?

I would put Las Meninas before Guernica
Would’ve been nice to see Kosovo’s too.
