The Most Reproduced Paintings

Overstockart.com bills itself the world's largest distributor of hand-painted reproductions of famous paintings. Over the past decade, the best sellers have been:
  • 1. "Starry Night" – Vincent van Gogh
  • 2. "CafĂ© Terrace at Night" – Vincent van Gogh
  • 3. "The Kiss" – Gustav Klimt
  • 4. "Poppy Field at Argenteuil" – Claude Monet
  • 5. "The Mona Lisa" – Da Vinci
  • 6. "The Dream" – Pablo Picasso
  • 7. "Luncheon of the Boating Party" – Pierre August Renoir
  • 8. "The Scream" – Edvard Munch
  • 9. "Red Cannas" – Georgia O’Keeffe
  • 10. "Persistence of Memory" – Salvador Dal
I confess that I cannot recall ever having seen either the second Van Gogh, above, or the O'Keeffe, below.
