A map of Europe by ‘most famous artwork’.
Complete list here.
Ireland’s choice?
The Meeting on the Turret Stairs, 1864.
by Wicklow-born, Clare-bred Sir Frederic William Burton.
Rebooted by street artist Joe Caslin in 2015.
Your pick?

If architecture is included (is that the Parthenon in Greece?), then the White House is surely the most famous Irish piece.
I would have Eileen Grey in there for E-1027 or maybe Men of Destiny by Jack B Yeats.
I do love that Burton painting though to be fair.
William Orpen? Harry Clarke? Eileen Grey? Anne Madden? Francis Bacon?
no contest:

Harry Clarke. Nothing compares.
Amazing detail in that painting, it’s magnificent.
Book Of Kells, anyone?
