This looks interesting. What about publishing some of them on the
Public Domain Review? Shall I ask him?

Subject: Help with Philosopher's Favourite Artwork
To: PHILOS-L at liverpool.ac.uk

I have begun gathering images of the favourite artworks of a select
group of philosophers for an undergraduate module on aesthetics. I
start with six (Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, Marx, Adorno)
but would rather sixty. I hope to collect images, together with the
philosopher's comments (or indeed your own) particularly where it well
exemplifies their wider theory, aesthetic or otherwise. Three hours on
Nietzsche (Durer, Rubens, Turner) has convinced me this is not a task
for one person. Any suggestions, anecdotes, quotes would be most
welcome.

I have six weeks to complete a first draft and will post a list upon
completion.

Regards,

Steven Bond.
