    Hokusai. But what is the title of that first Hogarth painting? I could probably google it but I think I'll just call it "Frustrated Music Teacher Finally Gives Up."

    Hogarth has actually appeared in this online entertainment before -- FIVE FREAKING YEARS AGO, with his Beer Street and Gin Street caricatures. Cool.

    I guess I vote for, geez, I dunno. I'm going to pass again.

    Since it doesn't look like it will sway things at this point, I cast a vote for the funny paintings of Hogarth.

    Hogarth, but I love Hokusai, and I can imagine voting for either of them depending on my mood.
