da Cortona, Bartolomeo.
Da Cortona, da!--for the architecture and anatomical plates, as much as his paintings and sculpture. Then Wadsworth, van Leyden, and the Fra.
da Cartona, Wadsworth
I'll go with Domenichino, not for these specimens but because I know what's hiding behind them; then, Wadsworth, who is suddenly looking pretty good with that ambiguous sea-life; and van Leyden, of course. Don't know what to do with Pietro da Cortana and Fra Bart -- but I'm not going to ask Brad for help deciding, that's for sure.
Susan says "Lichtenstein, Wadsworth, Gros, & van Leyden."
Gros, Leyden, Domenichino, and Wadsworth.
I agree 100% with Susan's votes.
And voting is now closed in the Ninth Running of the Ladder of Art! Bye week for Van Leyden and Wadsworth! Liechtenstein falls out; everybody else keeps on rolling.
