    At 18, I was injured in a bus accident that left me with a crippled foot and in pain for most of my life. During my recuperation I taught myself to paint, and frequently utilized graphic images to depict my physical and emotional suffering. Married to a fellow artist, I only had three exhibitions during my brief lifetime, at the last one, in my native Mexico, I was carried in on a stretcher. In 1995, 41 years after my death, one of my paintings sold for more than $3 million, the second-highest price ever for a work by a female artist. Who am I?

    A controversial contemporary artist has recently created a work using an item of 18th-century origin and has taken its title from an exasperated question asked by his mum. Should he find a buyer at the asking price, his creation will become the most expensive work of art by a living artist ever to be sold. Who is the artist, and can you find me an illustration of this glittering aesthetic achievement?

    A few years ago, a painting attributed (somewhat dubiously) to a major Italian master was prevented from leaving the U.K. by a national campaign. Now, another painting, this time a portrait, by that artist is about to appear on the auction block. What is the work about to be sold, who painted it and whom does it depict, and what was that earlier work? An illustration of either painting would be welcomed.

    Following the premature death of an artist, a tribute to him was mounted. Visiting it, one of the artist's friends, someone who also died young, was moved to create yet another memorial, one that is, today, regarded as a great virtuoso masterwork. Who was the artist, who was the friend, and what is the work? And what three people, nearly 100 years later, were inspired by that work to produce a interesting version of their own?
