I'll start with a personal favorite, Van Gogh's The Old Tower in the Fields.

Bumping with more
This one's a Grimshaw
Saving up to see this one at the louvre at some point.
This is a recent favourite. I was visiting Manchester to see a shitty band, and I heard that their gallery had a nice pre-raphaelite collection so I popped in. I'm not sure what exactly it is about this one, but I couldn't stop grinning when I saw it. Made me almost happy.
The title is "The Queen was in the Parlour, eating Bread and Honey", which is brilliant because it depicts a queen, in the parlour, eating bread and honey. This would be a very simple, slice-of-life painting, were it not for the incredulous look she is casting at the viewer. Who are we supposed to be? The king, bemused that his wife is pilfering sweets at midnight? A servant, terrified to find his mistress in a state of relative deshabille? What are we doing in the pantry to begin with? It was all so ludicrous that it made my day.

Fascinating. Definitely makes you wonder what the intended perspective is.
