ReplyDeleteBruegel, of course. What's not to love?
ReplyDeleteBreugel for the detail, crispness, and the story-telling aspect of his pictures. If I ever had one to hang around my house, I'd carouse it endlessly.
ReplyDeleteI'll vote Bruegel, but I also like Buren very much, especially the mirror one!
ReplyDeleteAw man … I was all set for Bruegel but I kind of like the Buren stuff so he gets my vote.

ReplyDeleteUm, yea, Bruegel.
ReplyDeleteBuren. Parce qu'il aime les couleurs.
ReplyDeleteI've said it before and I hope to say it again: "Pieter B. is my first and most enduring artsy love. All the way to the finals, baby!"
ReplyDeleteBruegel, absolutely.
