The quiz format presents carefully selected famous artworks and challenges users to identify which painting belongs to which master artist.

Correct answers illuminate in green, while statistical bars display how other quiz-takers have responded to the same questions.
The origin of the word "quiz" itself has an interesting linguistic history with several competing theories. One unlikely but colorful theory traces back to Irish theater director Richard Daly, who allegedly wagered that he could add a new word to the English language and invented "quiz" for this purpose. A more scholarly theory suggests the term derives from the Latin question "Quis es?" meaning "Who are you?" However, the most widely accepted explanation is that "quiz" represents an abbreviation of the English word "question."
The online platform offers a diverse range of quiz categories designed to challenge different areas of knowledge and expertise. Weekly general knowledge quizzes feature twenty fresh questions every Friday, while expert-level challenges provide opportunities for participants to test themselves against questions developed by specialists in various fields. Additional quiz topics span sports, politics, and numerous other subjects to accommodate different interests and expertise levels.
The interactive quiz system operates through a user-friendly interface that guides participants through each question systematically. When multiple correct answers exist for a single question, the system clearly indicates this requirement and prompts users to confirm their selections before proceeding. Following each response, brief explanations accompany the correct answers, providing educational value beyond simple testing.
Upon completion, participants receive comprehensive results showing their total number of correct responses, allowing them to gauge their performance against the full quiz content. This scoring system enables users to track their knowledge levels and identify areas where their artistic expertise might benefit from further study or exploration.
