Question
An artist once remarked that a man with one of these objects is “just a middle-class man in his anonymity.” Three of these objects appear at different angles below three different waxing crescent moons in the painting The Mysteries of the Horizon. A man who listens to a gramophone in the center of a painting is flanked by two unseen men who are holding a bat and net respectively while wearing these objects. Dozens of (*) floating men wear these objects in the painting Golconda, which are also worn by two men in The Menaced Assassin. The Son of Man features an apple covering the face of a man wearing, for 10 points, what headwear that features prominently in many René Magritte works? ■END■
ANSWER: bowler hats [prompt on hats by asking “What specific type?”; prompt on men or humans or human bodies by asking “what object are they wearing?”] (The painting mentioned in the second sentence is The Happy Donor.)
