A vote by mail for Caravaggio.
ReplyDeleteI'm really glad Dali existed, but Caravaggio's facial expressions stun me every time I look at them. Caravaggio, per piacere.
ReplyDeleteZowie! It's a real slugfest, but when you only count one Caravaggio vote for Candida and one Dali vote for Dali enthusiast pfly, it's Caravaggio by 8 votes to 6. Caravaggio's going to the semis! Caravaggio's going to the semis!
