Oh, Lame Saint!

Congrats...you've done it! You've solved the anagrams, and even pointed out the embarrassing fact that #4 was screwed up. Here, for the record, are the solutions:

1. A Nice Rug = Guernica, by Pablo Picasso
2. We Sell Art, II =
Water Lilies, by Claude Monet
3. A Term in Chicago =
American Gothic, by Grant Wood
4. Garry's in Tenth* = well, it doesn't equal anything really, as I left out an H and a T (not one of my least imbecilic moments)...it was meant to be
The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh
5. I'm a Horny Nerd =
Harmony in Red, by Henri Matisse (painting also known as "La Desserte" and "The Red Room")

And the Bonus: I Hate Stalin = The Italians, by Cy Twombly
Kudos to Henry and Eleventh Hour and Gary for getting the last two, tougher, ones. Thanks to everyone for playing.

Here's one more for the road. It makes no sense, but I made it without the Anagram Servant, so try to solve it without. Again, it's a famous painting (and I checked it twice).

Super Bonus: Teaching a brittle son to stomp for a mule

Aristotle Contemplating the Bust of Homer! (You don't want to KNOW how long I spent on this. I was sure it would be "The Battle of..." something.)

Many years ago, the LA Times had the best headline ever when Aristotle Onassis was thinking of buying Buster Keaton's old house: Aristotle Contemplating the Home of Buster.
