re-edit: for the sexually insecureAttached Files"In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed. But they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love. They had 500 years of democracy and peace. And what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."

You're right. The time period was too restricting. 1945 was the liberation period for American art, but it mostly consisted of abstract art. A lot of which I love, but after a while there is too much sameness to it. After the end of the golden period for abstraction, American art really started to spread its wings.
And... since I am not partial to any one nation's art, I just have to post the pics I like."In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed. But they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love. They had 500 years of democracy and peace. And what did that produce?

Let the heavenly host sing.
The "Screen of Saints and Angels" at Coventry Cathedral, which is directly opposite the steps that lead up to the old cathedral ruins which are clearly visible in the reflection from the window. My photograph hardly does this magnificent creation justice.... it is actually 70 feet high and 45 feet wide and is supported by a bronze framework hung by wires from the roof for added strength.
