Smile Need help identifying art! (thank you)

Hey guys, I need your help on trying to identify the following paintings, as without them I may fail my course. I apologize for the bad quality or some of the pictures.

Post cards from TATE MODERN (to help)-
East asian women
Horse
Man with cloud head
Flag with german on it
Mouse reading newspaper

(I apologize for the position of the images, I forgot to rotate them before I uploaded)

Is identifying the paintings the whole point of the test? I hope not. Anyway, the man with the clouds is a sculpture by Magritte, I believe, and the mouse is presumably by Beatrix Potter.

Hi, thanks for helping. May I ask how did you get that picture up? is there some sort of gallery on the site which shows the images? I tried the link but couldn't find it.

And to other reply, I only need the names because before I chose my artist my teacher forgot to mention that I needed the names of the artist for my coursework.

To view the art, the main way in is through the artist A-Z page.

You can also explore the Tate Modern through an online map, but I don't find these to be of much use. I guess if you had a kinesthetic memory of where you saw a specific work, it might be helpful. The only room I have a strong memory of from my visit is the Sol Lewitt room, but I never did find it on the map.

Are you saying that you do not see the horse image when you click on the link I provided?

Sorry for confusing you, I did see the horse image. But I was curious to where you found it, is there some sort of page where it shows all the post cards?

thank you.

Actually the online shop does list postcards, although as of this writing it is not working at all so I can't verify the link:
