famous painting or artist? I am an Art History (Renaissance to Early 20th Century) professor at school for Fashion Designers, Interior Decorators and Game Design. The first two groups show high interest in my class but not the last. I would like to start the term out with showing some game screen shots that were inspired by a famous painting or artist in order to show some relevance to their field of interest. Thanks in advance
 
This may not be exactly what you're looking for, but Leonardo Da Vinci will play an important roll in Assassin's Creed 2. Unfortunately, AC2 isn't out yet. I'm not aware of any screen shots that show Da Vinci, either. That will certainly change, so perhaps you could hit IGN or GameSpot at some point in the future and DL some shots.

The most artistic game I can think of is called Okami, and I believe it was released for the Wii and the PS2. Beyond that, I can't really think of anything in video games that references painters beyond the Ninja Turtles.
