07 Jan, 2016: Day 28

Question 1:
In what European capital can you view the city's first nude statue by Sir Richard Westmacott erected in 1822? Answer: London.


I'm not up on British Neoclassic sculptor, so no further comments. Plug into the search field sir richard westmacott statue 1822 for the answer, which contains images of his greater than life sized bronze "Achilles", in dedication to Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington.

Question 2:
The Curatorial Director of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum authored a book describing 50 years of what rock band? Answer: The Rolling Stones.


Well, if it was neither The Rolling Stones or The Beatles this might have made for an interesting search. But I guessed The Rolling Stones, so there you go. Finding the answer without guessing: curator Rock and Roll Hall of Fame book will give results on Howard Kramer's passion, Rolling Stones : 50 years of rock.

Question 3:
In a famous King Crimson debut album cover, the character's terrified eyes are looking down towards what side of his body? Answer: Right.


Please see Day 3 for the explanation.
