ReplyDeleteOh, but Stubbs was the best lion v. horse painter that ever lived! And that is very nearly enough, but I have to give it to Sutherland for his wide and likable range.
ReplyDeleteWant to say Sutherland. Have to Google for more first. ...Okay, definitely Sutherland.
ReplyDeleteSusan votes by mail for Stubbs.
ReplyDeleteStubbs for sure, for me.
ReplyDeleteStubbs. I have to admit that I was leaning Stubbsward, and then when I saw the first Sutherland, I starting scrolling ahead to the bottom to vote without really looking at the other Sutherland (until I caught myself, and I did like the bee picture better, but I'm still going with Stubbs).
ReplyDeleteLate votes for Stubbs can't make any headway against Sutherland's support, and the 20th century guy takes the contest eight votes to three. Sorry, Stubbs!
