Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun
I've seen a Warhol in real life! It was underwhelming. Le Brun.

Mariah vote for Vigee Le Brun.
Warhol! Come on people! One factor that pushed me towards him was his album covers. I really do think he has an exceptional eye. Sticky Fingers- genius. Genius, I say, to you Warhol haters! He's like Duchamp, but shallower; which is really the only way to outdo Duchamp. And Vigee Le Brun? I mean, she's fantastically talented, but I would stroll right be her in a museum. Now if she could add a little day glow color and repeat the same image 20 times, then maybe I'd consider her. Here's a link to a bunch of his album covers.

Susan votes for Vigee le Brun
I stroll right by Warhols in museums all the time. Whereas, Vigee le Brun, I kind of like the cut of her jib. I vote for her.
Vigée Le Brun.
Obviously the top one. I love how realistic they are.
Le Brun.
I don't know that I would have expected this lopsided result: Vigee-Le Brun crushes Warhol, eleven votes to one. It's 1-2 and out for the American icon; while Élisabeth marches on!
