7. Description: The Grand Canyon was formed as the Colorado River paved its way through rocks through the process of erosion. Because of this erosion, rocks in this location (said to be dated up to nearly two billion years ago) became exposed, thus making the Grand Canyon have some of the oldest exposed rocks on Earth. It has been home to many different cultures starting from the Ice Age. The Grand Canyon has since then been an important tool for geologists to study evolution through the history embedded in these rocks.

The Ugly Duchess is one of Quinten Massys' most famous paintings. The painting depicts an old woman, not deemed considerably beautiful, dressed in youthful and 'provocative' clothing and accessories in an attempt to seduce. Interestingly, this painting has been classified as satire as it supposedly focuses on women of age who seem to have been stuck in their youth or vanity. Although, even more, interesting than this is that this image was included in a gallery that showcased 'ugly' paintings in line with the message that due to the paintings not being of the traditional aesthetic, it steers people away from the proper appreciation of important art.
