The Infinite Art Tournament, Left Bracket Third Round: Cole v. Ghirlandaio!

Two firsts today, as we enter the Left Bracket Third Round: Frederic Bazille becomes the first artist to head into action for a fourth time, and we have the first match between two artists who aren't bringing the same win-loss record into the match.  There will be a lot more where that came from.
