Here's some votes coming in over the transom:

And I'll vote for Holbein and Poliakoff.
Marini, Lam, Canaletto
And an anti-vote against Jones
Susan is voting for Allen Jones because "I think he's funny, and because he was born the same year I was. Holbein because of Sir Thomas More and Thomas Cromwell facing off at the Frick. Donald Judd and Canaletto because he's super and I'm reading a very good Venice mystery by Donna Leon right now.
I'm for Holbein, and also Poliakoff and Canaletto.
