Here's some innovative use of Old Masters in the opening sequence to The Borgias. Can you name all the artists and the paintings?
Update - Twitter art sleuth @metadadaist names the works, in order:
Van der Weyden Philippe de Croy; Bronzino Exposure of Luxury; a Cranach Lucretia ('curiously flipped'); a Cranach Judith; Ghirlandaio Zachariah in the Temple; Sabatelli Battle of Serchio; Caravaggio Death of the Virgin; a Hans Baldung; another Sabatelli; Boullogne's Triumph of Neptune (in reverse); Regnault's Execution; Anguissola, Portrait of the Artisti's Sister.
