in the cabin going up BWM, there is a painting on the rear wall, the only painting in any of the dwellings that has caught my eye.
i doubled the image size, to get a better look, and it appears to be a woman with a parasol, walking in a park or forest. it looks familiar to me.
does anyone here have any idea what that painting is?
or is old age beginning to make me delusional?

I'm thinking it's by Claude Monet. But I don't really know art very well, so I'm probably wrong. Great question though!

i had to go look again.
if i had to guess, i would say its an imitation Seraut.
it reminds me of Sunday Afternoon, but the woman isnt blonde.
he did a few like this...
(he was the guy who painted with thousands of little dots)

My guess is a 6bit Claude Monet. Great catch on the painting

i just did an image search of monet paintings, and while many are simular, none match.

thanks for the input, guys and gals.

no luck with seraut, either.
the painting appears to be a blonde woman, in a blue dress, with a white parasol. she stands in the right foreground, with what looks to be a pathway to the left of her, and what looks like a small,bright red flowering plant to the right of her.

As I hear how desperate you are about not finding the original painting I have to say that there possibly is not really a actual painting like that made by an artist. Perhaps it has been created by the guy who made these objects for the use in games. He could have made it after seeing the painting above or a similar one. If this actually is a painting by seurat or another famous artist it would infringe the creatorsrights IMO.
