Final Jeopardy Answer
The Final Jeopardy Answer is: René Magritte
Final Jeopardy Explanation
The artist who created the painting “L’Oiseau de Ciel” (Sky Bird) for Sabena Airlines is René Magritte. Magritte was a Belgian surrealist artist known for his thought-provoking images that challenge observers’ preconditioned perceptions of reality. His work often includes ordinary objects depicted in an unusual context, making the familiar appear alien or out of place. In “L’Oiseau de Ciel,” as described, a bird is filled with clouds set against a blue sky, a typical display of Magritte’s surrealistic style.
