On either side of a loss to Tamayo, Teniers beat Gerard Ter Borch and Wayne Thiebaud.
On either side of a loss to Tinguely, Terbrugghen beat Wayne Thiebaud and Gerard Ter Borch.
Thiebaud and Ter Borch are probably going to have trouble deciding which one of these guys they want to see win. But what about you? Which artist do you prefer?
Hendrick Terbrugghen
1588 - 1629
Dutch
- Beat pastry specialist Wayne Thiebaud in Round 1 by a two-vote swing. YOUR VOTE COUNTS!!!
- Lost to Switzerland's Jean Tinguely in Round 2.
- Beat Gerard Ter Borch in the Left Bracket Second Round by another two-vote swing. YOUR VOTE COUNTS!!!
David Teniers
1610 - 1690
Flemish
- Beat his contemporary Gerard Ter Borch in Round 1.
- Lost to Mexico's Rufino Tamayo in Round 2.
- Made it past Wayne Thiebaud in the Left Bracket Second Round by a safe margin.

Terbrugghen. It was a tough decision.
Terbrugghen. More dynamic of the two. And there's a sort of winkery by the artist that I like.
Teniers would get my vote either way, but I need to mention how much I hate the third Terbrugghen (Bachante with an Ape). If you're going to be a Caravaggisti, your charaacters can't be so chipper! And, on another note, I can't believe it has taken me three contests to notice the ape.

Terbrugghen, because he's really good.

I don't like either of them, but I dislike Terbrugghen less so he gets my vote.
Susan votes for Terbrugghen.
Teniers.
Terbrugghen!
OK, I think we're all in here. It looks like Terbrugghen gets eight votes and Teniers gets four, meaning it will be Terbrugghen who takes on Sutherland in the Third Round. Thanks for voting y'all!
