Wow, Waterhouse really put the hurt on Watteau here, with a voting total of everybody to The 5000s. Thirteen to two, that translates to in number-speak. It will be interesting to see how they do in their second matches... which is course the whole premise of the Tournament.

ReplyDeleteI don't really like either of them, but Waterhouse I guess.

ReplyDeleteHuh. Well, certainly neither are quite my thing. But I'll go with Watteau.
ReplyDeleteSusan votes for Waterhouse.
ReplyDeleteI'll go with Watteau. I'm enjoying pretending that his sad harlequin is also a "Lady of Chalotte.
ReplyDeleteWaterhouse, without a doubt. Well, maybe a little doubt. But Waterhouse nevertheless.
