You know, even though i know of Goya, i don't know his work at all, and for some reason my brain just defaulted to thinking about the canned food brand. Pathetic.
Freebie: a glossy poster of a painting by Goya (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goya) (see e.g. his 'Disasters of War (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Los_Desatres_de_la_Guerra)' ... I'm not actually sure which of his works is on the Indy's glossy poster, but you get the idea!)
I think it was the word "glossy" that tipped this one over the edge for me, actually.
Y'know, it might be possible to construct an argument that it was. After all, Saturday's lead article on Dubya's contrasting take on "innocent life" with respect to internal and external policy was accompanied by a glossy poster of van Gogh piece, an artist perhaps most noted for an insecure grip on reality.
