  2. I also really like the Fabritius. If it weren't for that damned Delft gunpowder explosion, who knows how famous he could've been...

  5. An abstaining email voter doesn't want to vote against either artist.

  6. Me, on the other hand, I'll take the optics of Fabritius above the wafer-thin range of Fantin-Latour any day.

  9. It's a sweep! Fantin-Latour doesn't seem to generate much animosity but fails to take a single vote, losing it 0-11 with a single declared abstention. He'll try again in the left bracket as Fabitrius sees if he can keep his momentum up when he takes on Feininger this week!
