ReplyDeleteSisley with some hesitation after seeing comments
ReplyDeleteI'm hesitating due to Ruysch's, uh, limited range. But, then again, she might be the best flower painter ever. That gives her the win for me over a good, but not great, impressionist.

ReplyDeleteSisley. I'm not much of a cut-flowers guy.
ReplyDeleteSisley, I guess.
ReplyDeleteRuysch. I liked how beautiful the colors were and how realistic it was.
