Hi Gang, The other day I was cutting and polishing a neat piece of pink Botswana agate, and as it took shape, I realized that it resembled a famous painting, in an abstract way. (Either that or I am losing my mind). I am sure this will be so obvious that the first person who takes a shot at it will know the answer, but who will be the first to tell me what famous painting (by title) this freeform resembles? Any art aficionados out there ? Vance

I know absolutely zero about art--but isn't it that screaming face guy?! Nona

Is it the Edvard Munch painting "The Scream". Looks like it to me. Real cool bot.

Ding,ding,ding,ding,ding.....! We have winners, already! Nona was the first to jump in with the right answer, but Tony was right on target, too. Here are two photos, one of the cab and one of the painting, so you can see (hopefully) the resemblance: Vance

Put it on Ebay, it's gotta be worth a hundred bucks or more to some eccentric collector out there...

That's hilarious, rocklicker! I hadn't thought of this movie poster, but you are absolutely right about the resemblance~
