The Treachery of Rene Magritte

If you've read the fault in the stars, then chances are you're at least somewhat associated with the art of Rene Magritte, the man who created the image on Hazel's "c'est ne pas un pipe" shirt. His artwork is awesome and weird and crazy philosophical. Here are some of his paintings.

The Treachery of Images (which reads in French "this is not a pipe," meaning that it is instead of it being a pipe, it is a painting of a pipe) 
 
The Son of Man

Golconda (You may recognize this is Mrs. Barnes art room)

And as I said before, if you haven't read the Fault in our Stars it is a seriously amazing book.
