    I like Carracci well enough, but the inadequate size of that cross always gets me. "Gonna crucify a child!" The passer-by recoils in horror.

    I'll go Luini Wadsworth Sassetta and oh why not Reynolds here.

    Wadsworth dominates as usual, Sassetta and Lipchitz end their runs, Luini, Reynolds, and Landseer progress! Thanks for voting!
