I'm going to give it to Raeburn. I think I actually slightly prefer Zorn's style, but not enough to give it to him in the light of his coming 100 years later.

Hmmm, yes, Zorn for me. I always like a little context.

Susan votes for Raeburn here.
This is like comparing apples and apples! Zorn.

Raeburn.
It's a tie! It's a tie! Zorn's first, although his bracket position was shifted to help resolve the Metsu/Michelangelo tie. But -- bizarrely -- it's Raeburn's fourth. He's now at 3-1-4, and we'll be waiting to see how this one is going to play out.
