I've just got this poster for my house, I think I know most of them but a few that I'm missing. Starting at the top left and numbering left to right I'm struggling with 12,14,16,20,21 &28.

Can anyone help me!! I love this poster but need to know who they all are!

I think 14 is Frieda Khalo

16 might be Coco Chanel?

nemeton · 30/11/2020 16:23

28 is possibly Indira Gandhi, but tbh it's far too small and blurry to see. Do you have a crisper picture? I can't see the others you mention properly.

It's a great shame so many are fictional, as if there aren't actually enough real women to run the world.

Is 12 Marie Curie? I cant really see very well as Im on a small screen

BarbaraofSeville · 30/11/2020 16:26

12 might be Marie Curie, but I'd have to see what's in her hands to be sure. Even on my large screen, the picture is too small to see properly.

Cross posted with Steps. Great minds?

BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz · 30/11/2020 16:29

12 Is Marie Curie
14 is Frieda Khalo

BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz · 30/11/2020 16:30

Disfordarkchocolate · 30/11/2020 16:30

Is 28 Indira Ghandi?

Alexandernevermind · 30/11/2020 16:31

21 Cleopatra?
28 Joan of Arc? (If I've counted right!)

Disfordarkchocolate · 30/11/2020 16:31

I'd be pissed off at the fictional characters. They really haven't tried hard enough.

TiptopJ · 30/11/2020 16:34

I also thought coco chanel for 16

Lucked · 30/11/2020 16:34

Is 28 Maya Angelou and 21 Ella Fitzgerald?

TheSmallClangerWhistlesAgain · 30/11/2020 16:35

I think 20 is Janis Joplin and 21 might be Nina Simone.

Chewbecca · 30/11/2020 16:37

21 janis joplin and im taking a wild guess as imelda Marcos? Absolutely powerful but not quite sure she fits the brief of who should be running the world.

Chewbecca · 30/11/2020 16:39

Florence Nightingale for 12?

adawong · 30/11/2020 16:40

They are all named in the video above,

winechateauxjoy · 30/11/2020 16:41

I think 3 are fictional. Yes they could do better - Jane Austin, Mary Seacole, Florence Nightingale, Ava Lovelace, Elizabeth Fry, Boudicca, Livia, Mary Wollstonecraft, Susan B Anthony, Anne Frank, Jacinda Ardern, Emily Bronte, Artemisia Gentileschi, Youyou Tu............ that took about 3 minutes thinking time.

Lucked · 30/11/2020 16:42

I agree with above that 12 is Marie Curie, she is holding a round bottomed lab flask in her hands.

Why on earth are there fictional characters in there?
