Very nice TM. I don't see George Washington. Be interesting to understand the artists view.

one of our fellow AHers is photoshopped in there too. :)

Go to the link instead of looking at the little image I placed in there. It's easier to see, and allows you to mouse over each person for information :)

It is a pretty stupid painting.   Mike Tyson and Shirley Temple??   Give us a break!

And for American Presidents, he has Abraham Lincoln, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush.   Yet, no Washington, Jefferson, or Theodore or Franklin Roosevelt.

Lincoln is in there.  But Washington, i see no reason why he should be on it.  What did he do to influence the world?
