  1. I like this Moreau guy. Googling for more, he was kinda weird.

  2. Gustave Moreau, who grew to 8'-6" and was born with vestigial wings between his shoulder blades, filled his work with sensitive portrayals of those struggling with the romantic challenges of different size and body types. Berthe Morisot has my vote.

  3. Moreau, definitely! Did you see the fingeres and foot in the bottom of the first painting?

  4. A bit of an upset here, as "Island of Dr." Moreau prevails over Morisot, seven votes to five.
