  1. Tough call. I love them both. I'll just slightly go with Sittow.

  2. Sittow for me. Rubens was a super artist, of course, but I just can't love the whole baroque thing.

  3. Geez, this is a close one for me. I like the third Rubens one and the first Sittow one. I guess I will go with the Estonian.

  4. Once again, I'm torn as I break a tie. Sittow takes it on my final vote, upsetting Rubens with five votes against four.
