"The Kiss" in Classical Art

DateSaturday, March 5

Last week's quiz was about the famous LIFE photograph "The Kiss" by Alfred Eisenstaedt.

Many other famous works of art throughout history have the same title. I can think of three...one sculpture and two paintings. Can you name the artists? Extra bonus points if you can give the titles in their respective languages. Double extra bonus points if you can name more than three!
