Kroyer's work is lovely, but Ghirlandaio's is even more wonderful, and over a wider range.

Man, who's ahead in this nailbiter?

When I counted a few weeks ago, I thought we had a tie here. I'm glad I checked! It's Krøyer, more wonderful and over a range that is more wonderful by two votes! He takes it, 8-6.
