Original – Beautiful (that's not subjective, that's a FACT; 100% FACT; don't argue with me) work by P.S. Krøyer, probably the best known of the Skagen Painters
Reason
It meets all the criteria in that it is so big I can't even load it, technically lovely (that is a jargon term, just vote support if you don't understand it), verifiable, encyclopaedic, has a cute dog and pretty woman. Whether the Google Art Project scan is up to snuff I leave to you image professors.(Bear in mind I have this much [holds finger and thumb really close together] skill with images, so if there is a problem that can't be fixed by waving a stick at the screen and chanting "Digitalis Renovatia" then I can't do anything about it.)
