I use Gimp to cut mine down.

Not particularly, but my eyesight has seen better days.
What I normally do is use Gimp to cut out the selected part and then if it's smaller than 300x300 (or thereabouts) I use imgur to increase the size.

So it would look like this:

I could do that with Gimp I recon.

Anyway there you have it.
What is this? This is merely part of the entire thing obviously it is a painting so what is the name of the painting and who is the artist? each answer/guess has to include both the name of the painting and the artist or best guess. Attention to details.

I predict this will need a few clues...I can't even get close.

Actually no.

It's Rembrandts "The Nightwatch"

comparing your picture with what's on Wikipedia, I'd say it could also be a forgery of said painting, or that the picture on wikipedia was taken after a restoration

I'll try to find a picture when I get home from work, or Stealhead posts the confirmation, whichever is later.

And I'm saying a close up of a dragonfly insect

Edit: Viper is right

Jimbuna · 08-05-14, 06:52 AM

Rgr that

Oberon · 08-05-14, 10:16 AM

Impressive, I'd have never have gotten that, even though I'm aware of the painting.

Anyway, here's the larger picture of my one:

There was something about it that made me search for Rembrandt paintings, I can't really explain why.

Stealhead · 08-05-14, 11:49 AM

It is The Night Watch. Not you could be right. The smaller sample was a different source. The larger onr was from Wiki. I. Only did an image search so it could be a fake.

Dag nabbit I was worried there might be an art major lurking. Sorry just a link cant seem to get my phone to copy the image http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi..._Rembrandt.jpg

Oberon · 08-05-14, 12:33 PM

Maybe it's from this version?

Aktungbby · 08-05-14, 12:38 PM
