Motorola: Classics (Smith & Foulkes) does a similar thing with movies rather than paintings, and is much more successful thanks to its high joke rate. Ditto for the wee delight that is Observer Music Monthly: From Abba To Zappa (Smith & Foulkes), built on the Flip Flop Flyin' caricatures of pop stars that were used to advertise the mag in the press. In one minute you get 26 alphabetically sorted popstars in pixel art, done so fast it takes a couple of viewings before you can identify them all.
