Happy musicians again, yay! Especially when combined with cute sheep, though admittedly not in the same painting. My vote goes to Hunt and his lascivious pianist.
Hunt by a landslide for me.
It's been a long, long time since I've said this, but we've got a vote from the FB syndication: Ingres.
Ingres
I was slightly leaning Ingres and then after some google image searching, I'm majorly Ingres. Outside of the first Hunt, not a fan.
Hunt seems fun, but Ingres seems better. And better is better than fun!
Hunting Ogres?
I'm in
Ingres that is
I'll vote for the more vivid colors of Hunt.
Hunt is a bit obvious, and I feel like I should dislike him, but I do kind of enjoy the in-my-face color. I don't know much about Ingres, so I poked around and tried to find something to get excited about, but outside of the folds of the dress in image #2, no luck.
I'm goin' with Hunt.
Oh, Hunt is just too...Well, anyway, Ingres for me.
..and a vote-by-mail for Ingres!
Hmm. Hunt!
So different! There's something so weird about the way the people are balancing on each other in those Hunt paintings. I wonder if they're all like that. It makes them that much more surreal. But still: Ingres for me.
Such exciting battling back-and-forth, but in the end Ingres pulls away just enough to take it on a two-vote swing, 8-6.
Thanks for the votes!
