Example art history picture quiz questions

Which 1889 Van Gogh painting shows a swirling night sky over a village?The Starry Night. He painted it from memory and imagination while staying at the asylum in Saint-Remy, so the sky is not a literal view.

Which technique uses small dots of pure color that blend in the viewer's eye?Pointillism, also called divisionism. Seurat used it in A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, where separate dots fuse into soft tones at a distance.

What does chiaroscuro mean in painting?Strong contrast between light and dark used to model form and create drama. Caravaggio is a well-known master of the technique.

Which Vermeer painting is often nicknamed the Mona Lisa of the North?Girl with a Pearl Earring. The nickname refers to its famous portrait-style composition and mysterious expression, though it is a tronie rather than a commissioned portrait.

What is a still life painting?A painting of inanimate objects such as fruit, flowers, or vessels. Artists used them to show skill with texture, light and arrangement.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a picture quiz have for an art history unit?

Eight to twelve questions usually cover one unit well, with each key painting, technique or term getting its own question. Start with the works and terms your course names most often.

What makes a good picture quiz question?

Ask about one visual feature, such as technique, color or composition, rather than a detail only the caption would reveal. Wrong answers should be plausible artists or terms from the same period.

Can I export my picture quizzes?

Yes. Plus includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML. The free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.
