5. Three Worlds

it's hard to pick one. so many are incredible, like all his staircase drawings --

[gratuitous]

6. That one where the perspective's all screwed up?

You know, it makes the President look like a Progressive? I don't know how many otherwise canny people have been fooled by that one, and even when you point it out, they still just can't see it.

8. Aren't they etchings rather than paintings?

9. They are lithographs, mezzotints, and woodcuts, not paintings or etchings.

These are various printmaking techniques, definitely not paintings.
