A possibly conventional choice, but I prefer Bouguereau.
Kahlo
I like Kahlo more than the other surrealists, I do feel like she's trying to draw some meaning from the absurdity. And Bouguereau... Groan. Can the backlash against him begin this round?
Bouguereau for me, I think.
Tough choice. I like them both for different reasons. I'm going to go with... um... Bouguereau!
I vote for Hans Holbein! Oh. Um. Kahlo, I guess.
Kahlo.
Kahlo for me.
Kahlo. I wrote a pretty bad short play about her for a college Spanish class.
I am not ready for the Bouguereau backlash! I like him, no matter what it says about me!!
Bouguereau?
Khalo, still.
Here is an emailed vote for Bouguereau.
Kahlo all the way! The other guy's sentimental and saccharine.
Bouguereau!!!
Whoopsie, it looks like I never put the closing comment on this one. It was a close one! Kahlo took it, 8 votes to 7.
