Stellar painter trumps stellar photographer.

I'll admit to a twinge, here. A twinge! But Kandinsky, sure.

I prefer Cartier-Bresson on my laptop although I do wonder whether I'd be suckered in by Kandinsky a lot more in a gallery.

And it's Kandinsky ending up on top, 8 votes to 4. The painter takes on a sculptor next; the will just have to see if he can make it in the Left Bracket.
