#6 Brueghel, Pieter the Elder(1525-1569) - Babel
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pieter_Bruegel_the_Elder
He is with Hieronymus Bosch the father of modern comics, all his paintings tell a story that you can read while carefully analysing his paintings. enjoy
#5 Redon, Odilon (1840-1916)
Symbolist painter, he's one of my favorite, his paintings are full of color and very mysterious! I could watch them for hours!
hope you enjoy!!!

#4 Eyck, Jan van (1395-1441)
He was very active in the actual Belgium and the Netherlands, he is traditionally known as "the father of oil painting", i'm sure you'll appreciate his artistic skills.
The mirror is a reference to the use of mirrors he used to make this painting, this is what David Hockney explains in his book 'Secret Knowledge'
