Images can be so popular, well known or interesting that many people choose to include them in their web postings: googling the artist name and a quick word from the title of the image or describing the image has it pop up universally (above "Harlequin" and "Miro") or nearly universally (below "Ernst" and "Elephant") in the first page of the google search results. The few non Ernst's squares that slipped into the pattern feel like foils against the repeated Ernst's image. I particularly like the second non-Max Ernst image in the second row, the distressed Oscar, which is by Elizabeth Ernst. 
Ernst's Elephant Celebes occupies fewer and fewer squares on the pages that follow (page 2 and 3 of the search result below), and the print out of the search loses much of its sense of pattern. By the four page of the Google image search, Elephant Celebes is gone (Oscar makes another appearance, there).
