The Head Gear of Famous Painters

Such as a hat shaped like a loaf of bread as favoured by Salvador Dali. Though sometimes he liked to wear a skull!!

I'm sure you recognise the ageing and imperial figure of Claude Monet

Amanda Bradshaw has captured him perfectly in her statue of the great painter.  

But I have saved my favourite to last and I'm sure you will all agree that the wonderful and much loved Australian painter Margaret Olley wins.

Post Script

And who is that handsome fellow in the Hero Image today? You really should know as he is probably the most famous painter of all time. I will give you the answer tomorrow.
