This one is classed as 'Fiendish'. Good luck!

Well done to those of you who got it. But! Some of you confessed to cheating, by uploading the image to Google image search. I thought I would handily get around this problem by taking a photo of the painting myself. But those fellows at Google are so dashedly clever, that their image search still works anyway.
