    As moving as the first Kinkaid is, I also will vote for the dogs. But I have to admit, the rainbow detail almost swayed me.

    The painter of light, of course. Such inspiration and originality!

    Kinkaid for the win!

    This is a toughie, but I'll go with Koolidge, who so ably carries on a genre pioneered by Caravaggio and Georges de La Tour, only--get this--with dogs.

    Gotta go with Kinkaid, though I'm thinking that the biographical information has perhaps been April Fooled with (unless Walt Disney hopped in a time machine).

    Surely you're joking. Okay, fine, Coolidge. Who's in charge of spelling around here? And dating? And nationalitying?
