  • Uncut Gems: Assorted Questions, Mainly Literature, That Weren't Good
    Uncut Gems: Assorted questions, mainly literature, that weren’t good enough to go into other packets By Mike Bentley December 2019 1. An artist who commonly went by this first name built his reputation as a genre painter with ​ ​ an ambiguous 1859 painting that could be read as both pro- and anti-slavery titled Negro Life at ​ the South. That artist with this first name has his name emblazoned on the entrance of the Met ​ and earned a reputation as the American Rembrandt for his folksy paintings of Lincoln. A man with this last name developed a process for making ✂ dry plates in the 1880s and lends his ​ ​ ​ ​ name to a School of Music run by the University of (*) Rochester. That same man with this surname ​ introduced a wildly popular point-and-shoot device originally targeted at children called the Brownie. For 10 points, give this last name of George, who developed the Kodak camera. ANSWER: Eastman [accept Eastman Johnson or George Eastman] ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2. One of these people hatches a plot that relies on a woman having tattoo where the words "God" and "Love" form a cross. One of these people comes up with a ritual called a Particicution in which a ✂ guilty person is kicked to death and then torn apart by dozens shrieking people. ​ ​ Before becoming a full-fledged one of these people, they are sent abroad in pairs on Pearl Girl missions.
