Bliss.jpg was originally motel art. It was a stock photo of a random pretty place, and that's what Microsoft bought it as. The success of XP made it popular motel art.
Finally, years later, people managed to track down the original location of the photo and found the rolling meadows replaced by vineyards. That in my mind is the moment when bliss.jpg became 'real' art.
