❓Steemit Quiz 2025 - Weeks 18/19
Weeks 15 and 16 also became week 17 as we've seen some renewed life in the quiz. Thanks to @henryclive and @chriddi for bringing some Questions and Quördel - you've ensured that the fun continues!
There were 14 points on offer over this period with NO team (chriddi, moecki, event-horizon, o1eh) and @the-gorilla (Solo) top scoring with 5 points each. Two Shreks and Fiona (bluelavender, alexanderkass, henryclive) scored the other 4 points and narrowly missed out on making it a 3 way split!
I've added various beneficiaries below for the winners, additional quiz masters and 30% to @el-gorila for the overall prize pool and also updated the hall of fame.

Question 2
🧐 Odd One Out 🚫
Which painting is the odd one out, and why?
Hint 1:
Look for the original painting - this collage shows just sections because it’s „Canva resized“.
Hint 2:
It is neither about the ‘content’ of the painting(s) nor the artist(s). Note the craft itself.
Ach so! The Creation of Adam is a fresco - painted directly onto the ceiling of a chapel. It's a mural painting, whereas the others are traditional works on canvas or panel.
I missed this detail during my image search: 🤦♂️
✅ Correct!
My next hint would have been: "It's all a question of perspective."
I thought this question would be too easy an was quite irritated when nobody answered... Though, great!
Clearly, it wasn't that easy for me 😅 - but it's well-crafted question, considering there so many possible answers!
off-topic: It’ll take me a bit to respond to your other comment - there’s a lot to take in 😉
Mona Lisa is the only painting without religious or mythological symbolism.
while the rest:
The Birth of Venus - mythological portrayal of the Roman goddess of love.
The Creation of Adam - biblical scene from the Book of Genesis, depicting God giving life to Adam.
Dürer’s Self-Portrait – a self-portrait resembling traditional depictions of Christ.
👎 Probably a very good explanation but unfortunately not the answer I am looking for.
I had a different answer in mind, but your hint made me pick Mona Lisa instead.
The hint was to say: "Do not rely on the 'cut outs', watch each painting in its total (especially 'Venus' and 'Adam' are much wider)."
I thought it only had to do with the paintings themselves...
I’m still not sure, but I’d say the odd one out might be Dürer’s Self-Portrait, since it’s the only one that shows the artist himself.
I thought about it too while writing my first response, but since she's kind of insisting on looking at the full paintings, I came up with another answer, although a little far-fetched.
👎... 😔
I included a new hint.
Although the self-portrait of Albrecht Dürer is said to be inspired by his travels to Italy, the artist was German, unlike other artists (Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Botticelli) who were all Italian. I don't know what to think of the hint. I have an idea but this answer although obvious sounds more convincing to me. 😶
👎 Though very good, too, this isn't what I am looking for.
The hint was to say: "Do not rely on the 'cut outs', watch each painting in it's total (especially 'Venus' and 'Adam' are much wider)."
All paintings except Dürer's have something feminine about them — Mona Lisa, Venus and in Creation of Adam, there's an extra rib of Eve on Adam's left and also on the right some think there's a picture of human brain and others think it's a uterus.
👎... 😔
I included a new hint.
I feel the 1st picture is art with hand but other are also looking hand made
To take part at this quiz you alway should look for the others commenters: This riddle has already been solved by @henryclive.
✅ is the sign for an correctly answered question.
Question 4
🎥 Movie Magic 🎬
Listen to the audio clip below and try to guess which movie it's from.
Léon: The Professional 1994
✅ That's correct. Before John Wick, there was Léon: The Professional 😉
Awesome movie, really enjoyed watching it
It's still one of the best - and to think how old this movie is... just a year older than me.
Question 1
🎥 Movie Magic 🎬
What movie released last year is the image below depicting?
Longlegs with Nicola Cage.
✅ Welcome back! It is indeed the 2024 movie - Longlegs
Oooh, a nice way to return 🙂
Some Other Woman
👎 It's not Some Other Woman
Slender Man
👎 I'm not sure she'd appreciate being called a Man at all 😆
Long leg's as we seen in cover picture
I requested to the organizer thisnis my first entry please tell me about the the entry requirements thanks in advance
